preface
In this sixth edition we have retained the basic objective of the earlier editions:
• to present a comprehensive and rigorous treatment of classical thermodynamics
while retaining an engineering perspective, and in doing so
• to lay the groundwork for subsequent studies in such fields as fluid mechanics, heat
transfer, and statistical thermodynamics, and also
• to prepare the student to effectively use thermodynamics in the practice of engineering.
We have deliberately directed our presentation to students. New concepts and defi-
nitions are presented in the context where they are first relevant in a natural progression.
The first thermodynamic properties to be denned (Chapter 2) are those that can be readily
measured: pressure, specific volume, and temperature. In Chapter 3, tables of thermody-
namic properties are introduced, but only in regard to these measurable properties. Inter-
nal energy and enthalpy are introduced in connection with the first law, entropy with the
second law, and the Helmholtz and Gibbs functions in the chapter on thermodynamic re-
lations. Many real world realistic examples have been included in the book to assist the
student in gaining an understanding of thermodynamics, and the problems at the end of
each chapter have been carefully sequenced to correlate with the subject matter and are
grouped and identified as such. The early chapters in particular contain a much larger
number of examples, illustrations, and problems than in previous editions, and through-
out the book, chapter-end summaries are included, followed by a set of concept/study
problems that should be of benefit to the students.
New Features in this edition
End-of-Chapter Summaries
The new end-of-chapter summaries provide a short review of the main concepts covered
in the chapter, with highlighted key words. To further enhance the summary we have
listed the set of skills that the student should have mastered after studying the chapter.
These skills are among the outcomes that can be tested with the accompanying set of
study-guide problems in addition to the main set of homework problems.
Main Concepts and Formulas
Main concepts and formulas are included at the end of each chapter for reference.
Vi M PREFACE
Study Guide Problems
We have made a set of study guide problems for each chapter as a quick check of the
chapter material. These are selected to be short and directed toward a very specific con-
cept. A student can answer all of these questions to assess their level of understanding,
and determine if any of the subjects need to be studied further. These problems are also
suitable to use together with the rest of the homework problems in assignments and in-
cluded in the solution manual.
Homework Problems
The number of homework problems has been greatly expanded and now exceeds 2,400. A
large number of introductory problems have been added to cover all aspects of the chapter
material. We have furthermore separated the problems into sections according to subject
for easy selection according to the particular coverage given. A number of more compre-
hensive problems have been retained and grouped in the end as review problems.
Tables
The tables of the substances have been expanded to include the specific internal energy in
the superheated vapor region. The ideal gas tables have been printed on a mass basis as
well as a mole basis, to reflect their use on mass basis early in the text, and mole basis for
the combustion and chemical equilibrium chapters.
Revisions
In this edition we have incorporated a number of developments and approaches included
in our recent textbook, Introduction to Engineering Thermodynamics, Richard E. Sonntag
and Claus Borgnakke, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. (2001). In Chapter 3, we first introduce
thermodynamic tables, and then note the behavior of superheated vapor at progressively
lower densities, which leads to the definition of the ideal gas model, then the compres-
sibility factor and equations of state. In Chapter 5, the result of ideal gas energy depend-
ing only on temperature follows the examination of steam table values at different
temperatures and pressures. Second law presentation in Chapter 7 is streamlined, with
better integration of the concepts of thermodynamic temperature and ideal gas tempera-
ture. Coverage of ideal gas and ideal gas mixtures focuses on unit mass basis, instead of
mole basis, and is simpler. Development of availability and reversible work in Chapter 10
focuses on the steady-state process, and leads to the general expression for exergy. We
have therefore included a new section on the general exergy balance to amplify the con-
cept of transport and destruction of exergy. The chapter with property relations is slightly
reorganized and streamlined to also focus on properties on a mass basis. Due to current
technology developments we have expanded our discussion of the fuel cells and also up-
dated the chapter with combustion.
Expanded Software Included
In this edition we have included the expanded software CATT2 that includes a number of
additional substances besides those included in the printed tables in Appendix B. A
number of hydrocarbon fuels, refrigerants, and cryogenic fluids are included and a
preface E vii
printed version is available in the booklet Thermodynamic and Transport Properties,
Claus Borgnakke and Richard E. Sonritag, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. (1997).
Flexibility m Coverage and scope
We have attempted to cover fairly comprehensively the basic subject matter of classical
thermodynamics, and believe that the book provides adequate preparation for study of the
application of thermodynamics to the various professional fields as well as for study of
more advanced topics in thermodynamics, such as those related to materials, surface phe-
nomena, plasmas, and cryogenics. We also recognize that a number of colleges offer a
single introductory course in thermodynamics for all departments, and we have tried to
cover those topics that the various departments might wish to have included in such a
course. However, since specific courses vary considerably in prerequisites, specific objec-
tives, duration, and background of the students, we have arranged the material, particu-
larly in the later chapters, so that there is considerable flexibility in the amount of material
that may be covered.
Units
Our philosophy regarding units in this edition has been to organize the book so that the
course or sequence can be taught entirely in SI units (Le Systeme International d'UnitSs).
Thus, all the text examples are in SI units, as are the complete problem sets and the ther-
modynamic tables. In recognition, however, of the continuing need for engineering gradu-
ates to be familiar with English Engineering units, we have included an introduction to
this system in Chapter 2. We have also repeated a sufficient number of examples, prob-
lems, and tables in these units, which should allow for suitable practice for those who
wish to use these units. For dealing with English units, the force-mass conversion ques-
tion between pound mass and pound force is treated simply as a units conversion, without
using an explicit conversion constant. Throughout, symbols, units and sign conventions
are treated as in previous editions.
Supplements and Additional Support
Additional support is made available through a companion website at www.wiley.com/
college/sonntag. Tutorials and reviews of all the basic material as indicated in the main
text by the ThermoNet icon are accessible through the companion website. The website
allows students to go through a self-paced study developing the basic skill set associated
with the various subjects usually covered in a first course in thermodynamics.
The chapter on compressible flow is also available at www.wiley.com/colIege/
sonntag and revised with summary, study guide problems, and new homework problems.
We recognize that in many cases this chapter is not included in the thermodynamics
courses, but may instead be covered elsewhere in the curriculum.
We have tried to include material appropriate and sufficient for a two-semester
course sequence, and to provide flexibility for choice of topic coverage. Instructors may
want to visit the companion website at www.wiley.com/college/sonntag for information
and suggestions on possible course structure and schedules, additional study problem ma-
terial, and current errata for the book.

Acknowledgments
We acknowledge with appreciation the suggestions, counsel, and encouragement of many
colleagues, both at the University of Michigan and elsewhere. This assistance has been
very helpful to us during the writing of this edition, as it was with the earlier editions of
the book. Both undergraduate and graduate students have been of particular assistance,
for their perceptive questions have often caused us to rewrite or rethink a given portion of
the text, or to try to develop a better way of presenting the material in order to anticipate
such questions or difficulties. Finally, for each of us, the encouragement and patience of
our wives and families have been indispensable and have made this time of writing pleas-
ant and enjoyable, in spite of the pressures of the project. A special thanks to a number of
colleagues at other institutions, who have reviewed the book and provided input to the re-
visions. Some of the reviewers are
Edward E. Anderson, Texas Tech University
Haim H. Bau, University of Pennsylvania
Pei-Feng Hsu, Florida Institute of Technology
Gerald J. Micklow, University of Alabama
Jayathi Y. Murthy, Carnegie Mellon University
Anthony J. Wheeler, San Francisco State University
We also wish to thank our editor, Joseph Hayton, for his effort in the planning and the
support and encouragement during the production of this edition.
Our hope is that this book will contribute to the effective teaching of thermodynam-
ics to students who face very significant challenges and opportunities during their profes-
sional careers. Your comments, criticism, and suggestions will also be appreciated and
you may channel that through Claus Borgnakke, claus@umich.edu.

FUNDAMENTALS OF
THERMODYNAMICS
Sixth Edition
Some Introductory Comments
In the course of our study of thermodynamics! a number of the examples and problems
presented refer to processes that occur in equipment such as a steam power plant, a fuel
cell, a vapor-compression refrigerator, a thermoelectric cooler, a turbine or rocket en-
gine, and an air separation plant. In this introductory chapter, a brief description of this
equipment is given. There are at least two reasons for including such a chapter. First,
many students have had limited contact with such equipment, and the solution of
problems will be more meaningful when they have some familiarity with the actual
processes and the equipment. Second, this chapter will provide an introduction to ther-
modynamics, including the use of certain terms (which will be more formally defined
in later chapters), some of the problems to which thermodynamics can be applied, and
some of the things that have been accomplished, at least in part, from the application of
thermodynamics.
Thermodynamics is relevant to many other processes than those cited in this chap-
ter. It is basic to the study of materials, chemical reactions, and plasmas. The student
should bear in mind that this chapter is only a brief and necessarily very incomplete intro-
duction to the subject of thermodynamics.
1,1 The Simple Steam Power Plant
A schematic diagram of a recently installed steam power plant is shown in Fig. 1.1. High-
pressure superheated steam leaves the steam drum at the top of the boiler, also referred to
as a steam generator, and enters the turbine. The steam expands in the turbine and in
doing so does work, which enables the turbine to drive the electric generator. The steam,
now at low pressure, exits the turbine and enters the heat exchanger, where heat is trans-
ferred from the steam (causing it to condense) to the cooling water. Since large quantities
of cooling water are required, power plants have traditionally been located near rivers or
lakes, leading to thermal pollution of those water supplies. More recently, condenser
cooling water is recycled by evaporating a fraction of the water in large cooling towers,
thereby cooling the remainder of the water that remains as a liquid. In the power plant
shown in Fig. 1.1, the plant is designed to recycle the condenser cooling water by using
the heated water for district space heating.
The pressure of the condensate leaving the condenser is increased in the pump, en-
abling it to return to the steam generator for reuse. In many cases, an economizer or water
preheater is used in the steam cycle, and in many power plants, the air that is used for
combustion of the fuel may be preheated by the exhaust combustion-product gases.
These exhaust gases must also be purified before being discharged to the atmosphere,
such that there are many complications to the simple cycle.

2 H Chapter One some introductory Comments
FIGURE 1.1 Schematic diagram of a steam power plant.
Figure 1.2 is a photograph of the power plant depicted in Fig. 1.1. The tall building
shown at the left is the boiler house, next to which are buildings housing the turbine and
other components. Also noted are the tall chimney or stack, and the coal supply ship at
dock. This particular power plant is located in Denmark, and at the time of its installation,
set a world record of efficiency, converting 45% of the 850 MW of coal combustion en-
ergy into electricity. Another 47% is reusable for district space heating, an amount that in
older plants was simply thrown away to the environment with no benefit.
The steam power plant described utilizes coal as the combustion fuel. Other plants
use natural gas, fuel oil, or biomass as the fuel. A number of power plants around the
world operate on the heat released from nuclear reactions instead of fuel combustion. Fig-
ure 1.3 is a schematic diagram of a nuclear marine propulsion power plant. A secondary
fluid circulates through the reactor, picking up heat generated by the nuclear reaction in-
side. This heat is then transferred to the water in the steam generator. The steam cycle
processes are the same as in the previous example, but in this application the condenser
cooling water is seawater, that is then returned at higher temperature to the sea.
1.2 Fuel Cells
When a conventional power plant is viewed as a whole, as shown in Fig. 1 .4, fuel and air
enter the power plant and products of combustion leave the unit. There is also a transfer of
heat to the cooling water, and work is done in the form of the electrical energy leaving the
power plant. The overall objective of a power plant is to convert the availability (to do
work) of the fuel into work (in the form of electrical energy) in the most efficient manner,
taking into consideration cost, space, safety, and environmental concerns.

4 M CHAPTER ONE SOME INTRODUCTORY COMMENTS
FIGURE 1.3 Schematic diagram of a shipboard nuclear propusion system. (Courtesy Babcock & Wilcox Co.)
We might well ask whether all the equipment in the power plant, such as the steam
generator, the turbine, the condenser, and the pump, is necessary. Is it possible to produce
electrical energy from the fuel in a more direct manner?
The fuel cell accomplishes this objective. Figure 1.5 shows a schematic arrange-
ment of a fuel cell of the ion-exchange-membrane type. In this fuel cell, hydrogen and
oxygen react to form water. Hydrogen gas enters at the anode side and is ionized at the
surface of the iort-exchange membrane, as indicated in Fig. 1.5. The electrons flow
through the external circuit to the cathode while the positive hydrogen ions migrate
through the membrane to the cathode, where both react with oxygen to form water.
There is a potential difference between the anode and cathode, and thus there is a
flow of electricity through a potential difference; this, in thermodynamic terms, is called
work. There may also be a transfer of heat between the fuel cell and the surroundings.
At the present time the fuel used in fuel cells is usually either hydrogen or a mixture
of gaseous hydrocarbons and hydrogen. The oxidizer is usually oxygen. However, current
development is directed toward the production of fuel cells that use hydrocarbon fuels and

air. Although the conventional (or nuclear) steam power plant is still used in large-scale
power-generating systems and conventional piston engines and gas turbines are still used
in most transportation power systems, the fuel cell may eventually become a serious com-
petitor. The fuel cell is already being used to produce power for space and other special
applications.
Thermodynamics plays a vital role in the analysis, development, and design of
all power-producing systems, including reciprocating internal-combustion engines and
gas turbines. Considerations such as the increase of efficiency, improved design, opti-
mum operating conditions, environmental pollution, and alternate methods of power
generation involve, among other factors, the careful application of the fundamentals of
thermodynamics.
1.3 The Vapor-Compression
Refrigeration Cycle
A simple vapor-compression refrigeration cycle is shown schematically in Fig. 1.6. The
refrigerant enters the compressor as a slightly superheated vapor at a low pressure. It then
leaves the compressor and enters the condenser as a vapor at some elevated pressure,
where the refrigerant is condensed as heat is transferred to cooling water or to the sur-
roundings. The refrigerant then leaves the condenser as a high-pressure liquid. The pres-
sure of the liquid is decreased as it flows through the expansion valve, and as a result,
some of the liquid flashes into cold vapor. The remaining liquid, now at a low pressure
and temperature, is vaporized in the evaporator as heat is transferred from the refrigerated
space. This vapor then reenters the compressor.
In a typical home refrigerator the compressor is located in the rear near the bot-
tom of the unit. The compressors are usually hermetically sealed; that is, the motor and

compressor are mounted in a sealed housing, and the electric leads for the motor pass
through this housing. This seal prevents leakage of the refrigerant. The condenser is
also located at the back of the refrigerator and is arranged so that the air in the room
flows past the condenser by natural convection. The expansion valve takes the form of
a long capillary tube, and the evaporator is located around the outside of the free2ing
compartment inside the refrigerator.
Figure 1 .7 shows a large centrifugal unit that is used to provide refrigeration for an
air-conditioning unit. In this unit, water is cooled and the circulated to provide cooling
where needed.
1.4 The Thermoelectric Refrigerator
We may well ask the same question about the vapor-compression refrigerator that we
asked about the steam power plant — is it possible to accomplish our objective in a more
direct manner? Is it possible, in the case of a refrigerator, to use the electrical energy
(which goes to the electric motor that drives the compressor) to produce cooling in a more
direct manner and thereby to avoid the cost of the compressor, condenser, evaporator, and
all the related piping?
The thermoelectric refrigerator is such a device. This is shown schematically in Fig.
1.8fl. The thermoelectric device, like the conventional thermocouple, uses two dissimilar
materials. There are two junctions between these two materials in a thermoelectric refrig-
erator. One is located in the refrigerated space and the other in ambient surroundings.
When a potential difference is applied, as indicated, the temperature of the junction lo-
cated in the refrigerated space will decrease and the temperature of the other junction will

increase. Under steady-state operating conditions, heat will be transferred from the refrig-
erated space to the cold junction. The other junction will be at a temperature above the
ambient, and heat will be transferred from the junction to the surroundings.
A thermoelectric device can also be used to generate power by replacing the refrig-
erated space with a body that is at a temperature above the ambient. Such a system is
shown in Fig. 1 .86.
The thermoelectric refrigerator cannot yet compete economically with conventional
vapor-compression units. However, in certain special applications, the thermoelectric re-
frigerator is already is use and, in view of research and development efforts under way in
this field, it is quite possible that thermoelectric refrigerators will be much more exten-
sively used in the future.
lo5 The Air Separation Plant
One process of great industrial significance is the air separation. In an air separation plant,
air is separated into its various components. The oxygen, nitrogen, argon, and rare gases
so produced are used extensively in various industrial, research, space, and consumer-
goods applications. The air separation plant can be considered an example from two
major fields, the chemical process industry and cryogenics. Cryogenics is a term applied
to technology, processes, and research at very low temperatures (in general, below 150
K). In both chemical processing and cryogenics, thermodynamics is basic to an under-
standing of many phenomena that occur and to the design and development of processes
and equipment.
A number of different designs of air separation plants have been developed. Con-
sider Fig. 1.9, which shows a somewhat simplified sketch of a type of plant that is fre-
quently used. Air from the atmosphere is compressed to a pressure of 2 to 3 MPa. It is
then purified, particularly to remove carbon dioxide (which would plug the flow passages
as it solidifies when the air is cooled to its liquefaction temperature). The air is then com-
pressed to a pressure of 15 to 20 MPa, cooled to the ambient temperature in the after-
cooler, and dried to remove the water vapor (which would also plug the flow passages as
it freezes).
The basic refrigeration in the liquefaction process is provided by two different
processes. In one process the air in the expansion engine expands. During this process the
air does work and as a result the temperature of the air is reduced. In the other refrigera-
tion process air passes through a throttle valve that is so designed and so located that there
is a substantial drop in the pressure of the air and, associated with this, a substantial drop
in the temperature of the air.
As shown in Fig. 1.9, the dry, high-pressure air enters a heat exchanger. The air
temperature drops as it flows through the heat exchanger. At some intermediate point in
the heat exchanger, part of the air is bled off and flows through the expansion engine. The
remaining air flows through the rest of the heat exchanger and through the throttle valve.
The two streams join (both are at the pressure of 0.5 to 1 MPa) and enter the bottom of the
distillation column, which is referred to as the high-pressure column. The function of the
distillation column is to separate the air into its various components, principally oxygen
and nitrogen. Two streams of different composition flow from the high-pressure column
through throttle valves to the upper column (also called the low-pressure column). One of
these streams is an oxygen-rich liquid that flows from the bottom of the lower column,

and the other is a nitrogen-rich stream that flows through the subcooler. The separation is
completed in the upper column. Liquid oxygen leaves from the bottom of the upper, col-
umn, and gaseous nitrogen leaves from the top of the column. The nitrogen gas flows
through the subcooler and the main heat exchanger. It is the transfer of heat to this cold
nitrogen gas that causes the high-pressure air entering the heat exchanger to become
cooler.
Not only is a thermodynamic analysis essential to the design of the system as a
whole, but essentially every component of such a system, including the compressors, the
expansion engine, the purifiers and driers, and the distillation column, operates according
to the principles of thermodynamics. In this separation process we are also concerned
with the thermodynamic properties of mixtures and the principles and procedures by
which these mixtures can be separated. This is the type of problem encountered in petro-
leum refining and many other chemical processes. It should also be noted that cryogenics
is particularly relevant to many aspects of the space program, and a thorough knowledge
of thermodynamics is essential for creative and effective work in cryogenics.
1.6 The Gas Turbine
The basic operation of a gas turbine is similar to that of the steam power plant, except that
air is used instead of water. Fresh atmospheric air flows through a compressor that brings
it to a high pressure. Energy is then added by spraying fuel into the air and igniting it so
the combustion generates a high-temperature flow. This high-temperature, high-pressure
gas enters a turbine, where it expands down to the exhaust pressure, producing a shaft

work output in the process. The turbine shaft work is used to drive the compressor and
other devices, such as an electric generator that may be coupled to the shaft. The energy
that is not used for shaft work comes out in the exhaust gases, so these have either a high
temperature or a high velocity. The purpose of the gas turbine detennines the design so
that the most desirable energy form is maximized. An example of a large gas turbine for
stationary power generation is shown in Fig. 1.10. The unit has sixteen stages of compres-
sion and four stages in the turbine and is rated at 150 MW. Notice that since the combus-
tion of fuel uses the oxygen in the air, the exhaust gases cannot be recirculated as the
water is in the steam power plant.
FIGURE 1.11 A
turbofanjet engine.

Electric Aircraft Engines.)
The Chemical Rocket Engine □ 11
A gas turbine is often the preferred power-generating device where a large amount
of power is needed, but only a small, physical size is possible. Examples are jet engines,
turbofan jet engines, offshore oilrig power plants, ship engines, helicopter engines,
smaller local power plants, or peak-load power generators in larger power plants. Since
the gas turbine has relatively high exhaust temperatures, it can also be arranged so the ex-
haust gases are used to heat water that runs in a steam power plant before it exhausts to
the atmosphere.
In the examples mentioned previously, the jet engine and turboprop applications
utilize part of the power to discharge the gases at high velocity. This is what generates the
thrust of the engine that moves the airplane forward. The gas turbines in these applica-
tions are therefore designed differently than for the stationary power plant, where the en-
ergy is taken out as shaft work to an electric generator. An example of a turbofan jet
engine used in a commercial airplane is shown in Fig. 1.11. The large front-end fan also
blows air past the engine, providing cooling and gives additional thrust.
1.7 The Chemical rocket Engine
The advent of missiles and satellites brought to prominence the use of the rocket engine as
a propulsion power plant. Chemical rocket engines may be classified as either liquid pro-
pellant or solid propellant, according to the fuel used.
Figure 1.12 shows a simplified schematic diagram of a liquid-propellant rocket. The
oxidizer and fuel are pumped through the injector plate into the combustion chamber
where combustion takes place at high pressure. The high-pressure, high-temperature
products of combustion expand as they flow through the nozzle, and as a result they leave
the nozzle with a high velocity. The momentum change associated with this increase in
velocity gives rise to the forward thrust on the vehicle.
FIGURE 1.12

propellant rocket engine. exhaust gases
12 M Chapter one some introductory Comments
The oxidizer and fuel must be pumped into the combustion chamber, and some aux-
iliary power plant is necessary to drive the pumps. In a large rocket this auxiliary power
plant must be very reliable and have a relatively high power output, yet it must be light in
weight. The oxidizer and fuel tanks occupy the largest part of the volume of an actual
rocket, and the range and payload of a rocket are determined largely by the amount of ox-
idizer and fuel that can be carried. Many different fuels and oxidizers have been consid-
ered and tested, and much effort has gone into the development of fuels and oxidizers that
will give a higher thrust per unit mass rate of flow of reactants. Liquid oxygen is fre-
quently used as the oxidizer in liquid-propel lant rockets, and liquid hydrogen is frequently
used as the fuel.
Much work has also been done on solid-propellant rockets. They have been very
successfully used for jet-assisted takeoffs of airplanes, military missiles, and space vehi-
cles. They are much simpler in both the basic equipment required for operation and the lo-
gistic problems involved in their use, but they are more difficult to control.
1.8 Other Applications and
environmental issues
There are many other applications in which thermodynamics is relevant. Many municipal
landfill operations are now utilizing the heat produced by the decomposition of biomass
waste to produce power, and they also capture the methane gas produced by these chemi-
cal reactions for use as a fuel. Geofhermal sources of heat are also being utilized, as are
solar- and windmill-produced electricity. Sources of fuel are being converted from one
form to another, more usable or convenient form, such as in the gasification of coal or the
conversion of biomass to liquid fuels. Hydroelectric plants have been in use for many
years, as have other applications involving water power. Thermodynamics is also relevant
to such processes as the curing of a poured concrete slab, which produces heat, the cool-
ing of electronic equipment, in various applications in cryogenics (cryo-surgery, food
fast-freezing), and many other diverse applications.
We must also be concerned with environmental issues related to these many devices
and applications of thermodynamics. For example, the construction and operation of the
steam power plant creates electricity, which is so deeply entrenched in our society that we
take its ready availability for granted. In recent years, however, it has become increas-
ingly apparent that we need to consider seriously the effects of such an operation on our
environment. Combustion of hydrocarbon fuels releases carbon dioxide into the atmos-
phere, where its concentration is increasing. Carbon dioxide, as well as other gases, ab-
sorbs infrared radiation from the surface of the earth, holding it close to the planet and
creating the "greenhouse effect," which in turn is believed to cause global warming and
critical climatic changes around the earth. Power plant combustion, particularly of coal,
releases sulfur dioxide, which is absorbed in clouds and later falls as acid rain in many
areas. Combustion processes in power plants and gasoline and diesel engines also gener-
ate pollutants other than these two. Species such as carbon monoxide, nitric oxides, and
partly burned fuels together with particulates all contribute to atmospheric pollution and
are regulated by law for many applications. Catalytic converters on automobiles help to
minimize the air pollution problem. In power plants, Fig. 1 . 1 indicates the fly ash cleanup
and also the flue gas clean up processes that are now incorporated to address these prob-
other applications and environmental issues 13 13
lems. Thermal pollution associated with power plant cooling water requirements was dis-
cussed in Section 1.1,
Refrigeration and air-conditioning systems, as well as other industrial processes,
have used certain chlorofluorocarbon fluids that eventually find their way to the upper at-
mosphere and destroy the protective ozone layer. Many countries have already banned the
production of some of these compounds, and the search for improved replacement fluid
continues.
These are only some of the many environmental problems caused by our efforts to
produce goods and effects intended to improve our way of life. During our study of ther-
modynamics", which is the science of the conversion of energy from one form to another,
we must continue to reflect on these issues. We must consider how we can eliminate or
at least minimize damaging effects, as well as use our natural resources, efficiently and
responsibly.
Some Concepts
AND DEFINITIONS
One excellent definition of thermodynamics is that it is the science of energy and entropy.
Since we have not yet defined these terms, an alternate definition in already familiar
terms is: Thermodynamics is the science that deals with heat and work and those proper-
ties of substances that bear a relation to heat and work. Like all sciences, the basis of ther-
modynamics is experimental observation. In thermodynamics these findings have been
formalized into certain basic laws, which are known as the first, second, and third laws of
thermodynamics. In addition to these laws, the zeroth law of thermodynamics, which in
the logical development of thermodynamics precedes the first law, has been set forth.
In the chapters that follow, we will present these laws and the thermodynamic
properties related to these laws and apply them to a number of representative examples.
The objective of the student should be to gain both a thorough understanding of the fun-
damentals and an ability to apply these fundamentals to thermodynamic problems. The
examples and problems further this twofold objective. It is not necessary for the student
to memorize numerous equations, for problems are best solved by the application of the
definitions and laws of thermodynamics. In this chapter some concepts and definitions
basic to thermodynamics are presented.
2.1 A Thermodynamic System
AND THE CONTROL VOLUME
A thermodynamic system comprises a device or combination of devices containing a
quantity of matter that is being studied. To define this more precisely, a control volume is
chosen so that it contains the matter and devices inside a control surface. Everything ex-
ternal to the control volume is the surroundings, with the separation given by the control
surface. The surface may be open or closed to mass flows, and it may have flows of en-
ergy in terms of heat transfer and work across it. The boundaries may be movable or sta-
tionary. In the case of a control surface that is closed to mass flow, so that no mass can
escape or enter the control volume, it is called a control mass containing the same amount
of matter at all times.
Selecting the gas in the cylinder of Fig. 2.1 as a control volume by placing a control
surface around it, we recognize this as a control mass. If a Bunsen burner is placed under
the cylinder, the temperature of the gas will increase and the piston will rise. As the pis-
ton rises, the boundary of the control mass moves. As we will see later, heat and work
cross the boundary of the control mass during this process, but the matter that composes
the control mass can always be identified and remains the same.

An isolated system is one that is not influenced in any way by the surroundings.
This means that no mass, heat, or work cross the boundary of the system. In many cases a
thermodynamic analysis must be made of a device, such as an air compressor, which has a
flow of mass into it, out of it, or both, as shown schematically in Fig. 2.2. The procedure
followed in such an analysis is to specify a control volume that surrounds the device
under consideration. The surface of this control volume is the control surface, which may
have mass momentum, and also heat and work, cross it.
Thus the more general control surface defines a control volume, where mass may
flow tn or out, with a control mass as the special case of no mass flow in or out. Hence the
control mass contains a fixed mass at all times, which explains its name. The difference in
the formulation of the analysis is considered in detail in Chapter 6. The terms closed sys-
tem (fixed mass) and open system (involving a flow of mass) are sometimes used to make
this distinction. Here, we use the term system as a more general and loose description for
a mass, device, or combination of devices that then is more precisely defined, when a con-
trol volume is selected. The procedure that will be followed in the presentation of the first
and the second laws of thermodynamics is first to present these laws for a control mass
and then to extend the analysis to the more general control volume.
2,2 macroscopic versus microscopic
Point of view
An investigation into the behavior of a system may be undertaken from either a micro-
scopic or a macroscopic point of view. Let us briefly describe a system from a microscopic
point of view. Consider a system consisting of a cube 25 mm on a side and containing a
16 H ChapterTwo Some Concepts and Definitions
monatomic gas at atmospheric pressure and temperature. This volume contains approxi-
mately 10 20 atoms. To describe the position of each atom, we need to specify three coordi-
nates; to describe the velocity of each atom, we specify three velocity components.
Thus, to describe completely the behavior of this system from a microscopic point
of view we must deal with at least 6 X 10 20 equations. Even with a large digital computer,
this is a quite hopeless computational task. However, there are two approaches to this
problem that reduce the number of equations and variables to a few that can be computed
relatively easily. One approach is the statistical approach, in which, on the basis of statis-
tical considerations and probability theory, we deal with "average" values for all particles
under consideration. This is usually done in connection with a model of the atom under
consideration. This is the approach used in the disciplines known as kinetic theory and
statistical mechanics.
The other approach to reducing the number of variables to a few that can be handled
is the macroscopic point of view of classical thermodynamics. As the word macroscopic
implies, we are concerned with the gross or average effects of many molecules. These ef-
fects can be perceived by our senses and measured by instruments. However, what we re-
alty perceive and measure is the time-averaged influence of many molecules. For
example, consider the pressure a gas exerts on the walls of its container. This pressure re-
sults from the change in momentum of the molecules as they collide with the wall. From a
macroscopic point of view, however, we are not concerned with the action of the individ-
ual molecules but with the time-averaged force on a given area, which can be measured
by a pressure gauge. In fact, these macroscopic observations are completely independent
of our assumptions regarding the nature of matter.
Although the theory and development in this book is presented from a macroscopic
point of view, a few supplementary remarks regarding the significance of the microscopic
perspective are included as an aid to the understanding of the physical processes involved.
Another book in this series, Infroduction to Thermodynamics: Classical and Statistical,
by R. E. Sormtag and G. J, Van Wylen, includes thermodynamics from the microscopic
and statistical point of view.
A few remarks should be made regarding the continuum. From the macroscopic
view, we are always concerned with volumes that are very large compared to molecular
dimensions and, therefore, with systems that contain many molecules. Because we are not
concerned with the behavior of individual molecules, we can treat the substance as being
continuous, disregarding the action of individual molecules. This continuum concept, of
course, is only a convenient assumption that loses validity when the mean free path of the
molecules approaches the order of magnitude of the dimensions of the vessel, as, for ex-
ample, tn high-vacuum technology. In much engineering work the assumption of a con-
tinuum is valid and convenient, going hand in hand with the macroscopic view.
2.3 PROPERTIES AND STATE OF A SUBSTANCE
If we consider a given mass of water, we recognize that this water can exist in various
forms. If it is a liquid initially, it may become a vapor when it is heated or a solid when it
is cooled. Thus, we speak of the different phases of a substance. A phase is defined as a
quantity of matter that is homogeneous throughout. When more than one phase is present,
the phases are separated from each other by the phase boundaries. In each phase the sub-
stance may exist at various pressures and temperatures or, to use the thermodynamic term,
Processes and Cycles H 17
in various states. The state may be identified or described by certain observable, macro-
scopic properties; some familiar ones are temperature, pressure, and density. Iniaier
chapters other properties will be introduced. Each of the properties of a substance (^)
given state has only one definite value, and these properties always have the same value
for a given state, regardless of how the substance arrived at the state. In fact, a property
can be defined as any quantity that depends on the state of the system and is independent
of the path (that is, the prior history) by which the system arrived at the given state. Con-
versely, the state is specified or described by the properties. Later we will consider the
number of independent properties a substance can have, that is, the minimum number of
properties that must be specified to fix the state of the substance. r— — >
(^3 Thermodynamic properties can be divided into two general classes, intensive ! 0)|
extensive properties. An intensive property is independent of th e mass; the value of an ex-
tensive property varies directly with the mass. Thus, if a quantity of matter in a given state
is divided into two equal parts, each part will have the same value of intensive properties
as the original and half the value of the extensive properties. Pressure, temperature, and
density are examples of intensive properties. Mass and total volume are examples of ex-
tensive properties. Extensive properties per unit mass, such as specific volume, are inten-
sive properties.
Frequently we will refer not only to the properties of a substance but to the proper-
ties of a system. When we do so we necessarily imply that the value of the property has
significance for the entire system, and this implies equilibrium. For example, if the gas
that composes the system (control mass) in Fig. 2.1 is in thermal equilibrium, the temper-
ature will be the same throughout the entire system, and we may speak of the temperatv^
as a property of the system. We may also consider mechanical equilibrium, which is
lated to pressure. If a sys tem is_jn mechanical equilibrium, there is no tendency for tie
pressure at any pdlhTto changeTwim~tffie^^ the systemTBTsoIated^
roundings. There will be a variation in pressure with elevation because of the influence of
gravitational forces, although under equilibrium conditions there will be no tendency for
the pressure at any location to change. However, in many thermodynamic problems, this
variation in pressure with elevation is so small that is can be neglected. Chemical equilib-
rium is also important and will be considered in Chapter 15. When a system is in equilib-
rium regarding all possible changes of state, we say that the system is in thermodynamic
equilibrium.
2.4 PROCESSES ANB CYCLES
Whenever one or more of the properties of a system change, we say that a change in state
has occurred. For example, when one of the weights on the piston in Fig. 2,3 is removed,
the piston ris[

Ext us consider the equilibrium of a system as it undergoes a change in state. The
moment the weight is removed from the piston in Fig. 2.3, mechanical equilibrium does
not exist, and as a result the piston is moved upward until mechanical equilibrium is again
restored. The question is this: Since the properties describe the state of a system only
when it is in equilibrium, how can we describe the states of a system during a process if
the actual process occurs only when equilibrium does not exist? One step in the answer to

this question concerns the definition of an ideal process, which we call a guasi-equilibrium
process. A quasi-eqmHbrh^pracess is one in which the deviation from thermodynamic
■quiHbjiirm isjjrfmitesimal, and all the states the system passes througj^uring a quasi-
j^mljbrium process^may be^considered equihbjium states. Many actual processes closely
approach a quasi-equilibrium process and may be so treated with essentially no error. If
the weights on the piston in Fig. 2.3 are small and are taken off one by one, the process
could be considered quasi-equilibrium. However, if all the weights were removed at once,
the piston would rise rapidly until it hit the stops. This would be a nonequilibrium process,
and the system would not be in equilibrium at any time during this change of state.
For nonequilibrium processes, we are limited to a description of the system before
the process occurs and after the process is completed and equilibrium is restored. We are
unable to specify each state through which the system passes or the rate at which the
process occurs. However, as we will see later, we are able to describe certain overall ef-
fects that occur during the process.
Several processes are described by the fact that one property remains constant.
The prefix iso- is used to describe such a process. An isothermal process is a constant-
temperature process, an isobaric (sometimes called isopiestic) process is a constant-pressure
process, and an isochoric process is a constant-volume process.

Therefore, at the conclusion of a cycle, all the propertiesliave The same" value they had at
the beginning. Steam (water) that circulates through a steam power plant undergoes a cycle.
A distinction should be made between a thermodynamic cycle, which has just been
described, and a mechanical cycle. A four-stroke-cycle internal-combustion engine goes
through a mechanical cycle once every two revolutions. However, the working fluid does
not go through a thermodynamic cycle in the engine, since air and fuel are burned and
changed to products of combustion that are exhausted to the atmosphere. In this text the
term cycle will refer to a thermodynamic "cycle" unless otherwise designated.
2.5 Units for Mass, Length,
time, and force
Since we are considering thermodynamic properties from a macroscopic perspective, we
are dealing with quantities that can, either directly or indirectly, be measured and counted.
Therefore, the matter of units becomes an important consideration. In the remaining sec-
tions of this chapter we will define certain thermodynamic properties and the basic units.
UNITS FOR MASS, LENGTH, TIME, AND FORCE H 19
Because the relation between force and mass is often a difficult matter for students, it is
considered in this section in some detail.
Force, mass, length, and time are related by Newton's second law of motion, which
states that the force acting on a body is proportional to the product of the mass and the ac-
celeration in the direction of the force:
F cc ma
The concept of time is well established. The basic unit of time is the second (s),
which in the past was defined in terms of the solar day, the time interval for pne complete
revolution of the earth relative to the sun. Since this period varies with the season of the
year, an average value over a one-year period is called the mean solar day, and the mean
solar second is 1/86 400 of the mean solar day. (The measurement of the earth's rotation
is sometimes made relative to a fixed star, in which case the period is called a sidereal
day.) In 1967, the General Conference of Weights and Measures (CGPM) adopted a defi-
nition of the second as the time required for a beam of cesium-133 atoms to resonate
9 192 631 770 cycles in a cesium resonator.
For periods of time less than a second, the prefixes milli, micro, nano, or pico, as
listed in Table 2.1, are commonly used. For longer periods of time, the units minute
(min), hour (h) f or day (day) are frequently used. It should be pointed out that the prefixes
in Table 2.1 are used with many other units as well.
The concept of length is also well established. The basic unit of length is the meter
(m). For many years the accepted standard was the International Prototype Meter, the dis-
tance between two marks on a platinum-indium bar under certain prescribed conditions.
This bar in maintained at the International Bureau of Weights and Measures, in Sevres,
France. In I960, the CGPM adopted a definition of the meter as a length equal to
1 650 763.73 wavelengths in a vacuum of the orange-red line of krypton-86. Then in
1983, the CGPM adopted a more precise definition of the meter in terms of the speed of
light (which is now a fixed constant): The meter is the length of the path traveled by light
in a vacuum during a time interval of 1/299 792 458 of a second.
The fundamental unit of mass is the kilogram (kg). As adopted by the first CGPM in
1889 and restated in 1901, it is the mass of a certain platinum-iridium cylinder main-
tained under prescribed conditions at the International Bureau of Weights and Measures.
A related unit that is used frequently in thermodynamics is the mole (mol), defined as an
amount of substance containing as many elementary entities as there are atoms in 0.012
kg of carbon- 12. These elementary entities must be specified; they may be atoms, mole-
cules, electrons, ions, or other particles or specific groups. For example, one mole of di-
atomic oxygen, having a molecular weight of 32 (compared to 12 for carbon), has a mass
of 0.032 kg. The mole is often termed a gram mole, since it is an amount of substance in

grams numerically equal to the molecular weight. In this text, when using the metric SI
system we will find it preferable to use the kilomole (kmol), the amount of substance in
kilograms numerically equal to the molecular weight, rather than the mole.
The system of units in use presently throughout most of the world is the metric
International System, commonly referred to as SI units (from Le Systeme International
d'Unites). In this system, the second, meter, and kilogram are the basic units for time,
length, and mass, respectively, as just defined, and the unit of force is defined directly
from Newton's second law.
Therefore, a proportionality constant is unnecessary, and we may write that law as
an equality:
F=ma (2.1)
The unit of force is the newton (N), which by definition is the force required to accelerate
a mass of one kilogram at the rate of one meter per second per second:
1N = lkgm/s 2
It is worth noting that SI units derived from proper nouns use capital letters for symbols;
others use the lowercase letters. The liter, with the symbol L, is an exception.
The traditional system of units used in the Untied States is the English Engineering
System. In this system the unit of time is the second, which has been discussed earlier.
The basic unit of length is the foot (ft), which at present is defined in terms of the meter as
1 ft = 0.3048 m
The inch (in.) is defined in terms of the foot
12 in. = 1 ft
The unit of mass in this system is the pound mass (Ibm). It was originally the mass of a
certain platinum cylinder kept in the Tower of London, but now it is defined in terms of
the kilogram as
1 Ibm - 0.453 592 37 kg
A related unit is the pound mole (lb mol), which is an amount of substance in pounds
mass numerically equal to the molecular weight of that substance. It is important to distin-
guish between a pound mole and a mole (gram mole).
In the English Engineering System of Units, the unit of force is the pound force
(Ibf), defined as the force with which the standard pound mass is attracted to the earth
under conditions of standard acceleration of gravity, which is that at 45° latitude and sea
level elevation, 9.806 65 m/s 2 or 32.1740 ft/s 2 . Thus, it follows from Newton's second
law, that
1 Ibf = 32.174 IbmfVs 2
which is a necessary factor for the purpose of units conversion and consistency. Note that
we must be careful to distinguish between a Ibm and a Ibf, and we do not use the term
pound alone.
The term weight is often used with respect to a body and is sometimes confused
with mass. Weight is really correctly used only as a force. When we say a body weighs so
much, we mean that this is the force with which it is attracted to the earth (or some other
body), that is, the product of its mass and the local gravitational acceleration. The mass of
a substance remains constant with elevation, but its weight varies with elevation.

EXAMPLE 2.1 What is the weight of a one kg mass at an altitude where the local acceleration of gravity
is 9.75 m/s 2 ?
Solution
Weight is the force acting on the mass, which from Newton's second law is
F = mg = 1 kg X 9.75 m/s 2 X [1 N s 2 /kg m] = 9.75 N
EXAMPLE 2. IE What is the weight of a one Ibm mass at an altitude where the local acceleration of grav-
ity is 32.0 ft/s 2 ?
Solution
Weight is the force acting on the mass, which from Newton's second law is :
F = mg = 1 lbra X 32.0 ft/s 2 X [lbf s 2 /32.174 Ibm ft] === 0.9946 Ibf
2.6 ENERGY
One of the very important concepts in a study of thermodynamics is that of energy. En-
ergy is a fundamental concept, such as mass or force and, as is often the case with such
concepts, is very difficult to define. Energy has been defined as the capability to produce
an effect. Fortunately the word energy and the basic concept that this word represents are
familiar to us in everyday usage, and a precise definition is not essential at this point.
Energy can be stored within a system and can be transferred (as heat, for example)
from one system to another. In a study of statistical thermodynamics we would examine,
from a molecular view, the ways in which energy can be stored. Because it is helpful in a
study of classical thermodynamics to have some notion of how this energy is stored, a
brief introduction is presented here.
Consider as a system a certain gas at a given pressure and temperature contained
within a tank or pressure vessel. When considered from the molecular view, we identify
three general forms of energy:
/^Inter molecular p otential^ energy, which is associated with the forces between
molecules.
( 2AMolecular kineticenergy, which is associated with the translational velocity of indi-
vidual molecules.
( S ^ntramolecular energ y (that within the individual molecules), which is associated
with the molecular and atomic structure and related forces.
The first of these forms of energy, the intermolecular potential energy, depends on
the magnitude of the intermolecular forces and the position the molecules have relative to
each other at any instant of time. It is impossible to determine accurately the magnitude of
this energy because we do not know either the exact configuration and orientation of the
molecules at any time or the exact intermolecular potential function. However, there are
two situations for which we can make good approximations. The first situation is at low or

moderate densities. In this case the molecules are relatively widely spaced, so that only
two-molecule or two- and three-molecule interactions contribute to the potential energy.
At these low and moderate densities, techniques are available for" determining, with rea-
sonable accuracy, the potential energy of a system composed of reasonably simple mole-
cules. The second situation is at very low densities; under these conditions the average
intermolecular distance between molecules is so large that the potential energy may be as-
sumed to be zero. Consequently, we have in this case a system of independent particles
(an ideal gas) and, therefore, from a statistical point of view, we are able to concentrate
our efforts on evaluating the molecular translational and internal energies.
The translational energy, which depends only on the mass and velocities of the mol-
ecules, is determined by using the equations of mechanics—either quantum or classical.
The intramolecular internal energy is more difficult to evaluate because, in general, it
may result from a number of contributions. Consider a simple monatomic gas such as he-
Hum. Each molecule consists of a helium atom. Such an atom possesses electronic energy as
a result of both orbital angular momentum of the electrons about the nucleus and angular mo-
mentum of the electrons spinning on their axes. The electronic energy is commonly very
small compared with the translational energies. (Atoms also possess nuclear energy, which,
except in the case of nuclear reactions, is constant. We are not concerned with nuclear energy
at this time.) When we consider more complex molecules, such as those composed of two or
three atoms, additional factors must be considered. In addition to having electronic energy, a
molecule can rotate about its center of gravity and thus have rotational energy. Furthermore,
the atoms may vibrate with respect to each other and have vibrational energy. In some situa-
tions there may be an interaction between the rotational and vibrational modes of energy.
Consider a diatomic molecule, such as oxygen, as shown in Fig. 2.4. In addition to
translation of the molecule as a solid body, the molecule can rotate about its center of
mass in two normal directions, about the x axis and about the z axis (rotation about the y
axis is negligible), and the two atoms can also vibrate, that is, stretch the bond joining the
atoms along the y axis. A more rapid rotation increases the rotational energy, and a
stronger vibration results in an increase of vibrational energy of the molecule.
More complex molecules, such as typical polyatomic molecules, are usually three-
dimensional in structure and have multiple vibrational modes, each of which contributes
to the energy storage of the molecule. The more complicated the molecule is, the larger
the number of degrees of freedom that exist for energy storage. This subject of the modes
of energy storage and their evaluation is discussed in some detail in Appendix C, for those
interested in a further development of the quantitative effects from a molecular viewpoint.
This general discussion can be summarized by referring to Fig. 2.5. Let heat be trans-
ferred to the water. During this process the temperature of the liquid and vapor (steam) will
increase, and eventually all the liquid will become vapor. From the macroscopic view we
SPECIFIC VOLUME AND DENSITY H 23
are concerned only with the energy that is transferred as heat, the change in properties,
such as temperature and pressure, and the total amount of energy (relative to some base)
that the H 2 contains at any instant. Thus, questions about how energy is stored in the H 2
do not concern its. From a microscopic viewpoint we are concerned about the way in
which energy is stored in the molecules. We might be interested in developing a model of
the molecule so that we could predict the amount of energy required to change the temper-
ature a given amount. Although the focus in this book is on the macroscopic or classical
viewpoint, it is helpful to keep in mind the microscopic or statistical perspective as well, as
the relationship between the two helps us in understanding basic concepts such as energy.
2.7 Specific Volume and Density
The specific volume of a substance is defined as the volume per unit mass and is given the
symbol v. The density of a substance is defined as the mass per unit volume, and it is
therefore the reciprocal of the specific volume. Density is designated by the symbol p.
Specific volume and density are intensive properties.
The specific volume of a system in a gravitational field may vary from point to
point. For example, if the atmosphere is considered a system, the specific volume in-
creases as the elevation increases. Therefore, the definition of specific volume involves
the specific volume of a substance at a point in a system.
Consider a small volume 8V of a system, and let the mass be designated Sm. The
specific volume is defined by the relation
v = lim
sv-^sv om
where 5 V is the smallest volume for which the mass can be considered a continuum: Vol-
umes smaller than this will lead to the recognition that mass is not evenly distributed in
space but is concentrated in particles as molecules, atoms, electrons, etc. This is tentatively
indicated in Fig. 2.6, where in the limit of a zero volume the specific volume may be infi-
nite (the volume does not contain any mass) or very small (the volume is part of a nucleus).

Thus, in a given system, we should speak of the specific volume or density at a
point in the system, and recognize that this may vary with elevation. However, most of
the systems that we consider are relatively small, and the change in specific volume with
elevation is not significant. Therefore, we can speak of one value of specific volume or
density for the entire system.
In this text, the specific volume and density will be given either on a mass or on a mole
basis. A bar over the symbol (lowercase) will be used to designate the property on a mole
basis. Thus, v will designate molal specific volume and p will designate the molal density. In
SI units, those for specific volume are m 3 /kg and mVmol (or mVkmol); for density the corre-
sponding units are kg/m 3 and mol/m 3 (or kmol/m 3 ). In English units, those for specific vol-
ume are ftVlbm and fWlb mol; the corresponding units for density are lbm/ft 3 and lb mol/ft 3 .
Although the SI unit for volume is the cubic meter, a commonly used volume unit
is the liter (L), which is a special name given to a volume of 0.001 cubic meters, that is,
1 L = 10~ 3 m 3 . The general ranges of density for some common solids, liquids, and
gases are shown in Fig. 2.7. Specific values for various solids, liquids and gases in SI
units are listed in Tables A.3, A.4, and A.5, respectively, and in English units in Tables
F.2, F.3, and F.4.
EXAMPLE 2.2 A 1 -m 3 container, Fig. 2.8, is filled with 0. 12 m 3 of granite, 0. 1 5 m 3 of sand, 0.2 m 3 of liq-
uid 25°C water, and the rest of the volume, 0.53 m 3 , is air with a density of 1.15 kg/m 3 .
Find the overall (average) specific volume and density.
Solution
From the definition of specific volume and density we have:
u = Vim and p = mfV= 1/v
We need to find the total mass taking density from Tables A.3 and A.4
'"granite = pfWte = 2750 kg/m 3 X 0. 12 m 3 = 330 kg
*H«nd = Pzmd Vs*a = 15{ W X 0.15 m 3 = 225 kg
»W = JtWr ^wito = 997 kg/m 3 X 0.2 m 3 = 199.4 kg

Remark: It is misleading to include air in the
numbers for p and V, as the air is separate
from the rest of the mass.
FIGURE 2.8 Sketch for Example 2.2.
Now the total mass becomes
m M = "Igrante + ™sand + '"water + m air ~ 755 kg
and the specific volume and density can be calculated
v = VJm tot = 1 m 3 /755 kg = 0.001325 m 3 /kg
P = mJVn. = 755 kg/1 m 3 = 755 kg/m 3
2.8 Pressure
When dealing with liquids and gases, we ordinarily speak of pressure; for solids we speak
of stresses. The pressure in a fluid at rest at a given pointjsJhe same in all direction's, and
we define pressure as t,he ji~6rmalT:6^^ per unit^area\ More specifically, if
S A is a small area, 8 A r the smallest area over whichwe can consider the fluid a contin-
uum, and 8F n the component of force normal to SA, we define pressure, P, as
where the lower limit corresponds to sizes as mentioned for the specific volume, shown in
Fig. 2.6. The pressure P at a point in a fluid in equilibrium is the same in all directions. In
a viscous fluid in motion, the variation in the state of stress with orientation becomes an
important consideration. These considerations are beyond the scope of this book, and we
will consider pressure only in terms of a fluid in equilibrium.
The unit for pressure in the International System is the force of one newton acting
on a square meter area, which is called the pascal (Pa). That is,
Two other units, not part of the International System, continue to be widely used,
These are the bar, where

which is slightly larger than the bar. In this text, we will normally use the SI unit, the pas-
cal, and especially the multiples of kilopascal and megapascal. The bar will be utilized
often in the examples and problems, but the atmosphere will not be used, except in speci-
fying certain reference points.
Consider a gas contained in a cylinder fitted with a movable piston, as shown in
Fig. 2.9. The pressure exerted by the gas on all its boundaries is the same, assuming that
the gas is in an equilibrium state. This pressure is fixed by the external force acting on
the piston, since there must be a balance of forces for the piston to remain stationary.
Thus, the product of the pressure and the movable piston area must be equal to the exter-
nal force. If the external force is now changed, in either direction, the gas pressure inside
must accordingly adjust, with appropriate movement of the piston, to establish a force
balance at a new equilibrium state. As another example, if the gas in the cylinder is
heated by an outside body, which tends to increase the gas pressure, the piston will move
instead, such that the pressure remains equal to whatever value is required by the exter-
nal force.
EXAMPLE ^3 The hydraulic piston/cylinder system shown in Fig. 2.10 has a cylinder diameter of
D = 0.1 m with a piston and rod mass of 25 kg. The rod has a diameter of 0.01 m with
an outside atmospheric pressure of 101 kPa. The inside hydraulic fluid pressure is 250
kPa. How large a force can the rod push within the upward direction?

We will assume a static balance of forces on the piston (positive upward) so

So the force becomes

- 1963.5 - 785.32 - 245.25
- 932.9 N
Note that we must convert kPa to Pa to get units of N.
In most thermodynamic investigations we are concerned with absolute pressure
Most pressure and vacuum gauges, however, read the difference between the abso (CrtS)
pressure and the atmospheric pressure existing at the gauge. This is referred to as^gjtng
pressure. This is shown graphically in Fig. 2.1 1, and the following examples illustrate the
principles. Pressures below atmospheric and slightly above atmospheric, and pressure dif-
ferences (for example, across an orifice in a pipe), are frequently measured with a
manometer, which contains water, mercury, alcohol, oil, or other fluids.

Consider the column of fluid of height H standing above point B in the manometer
shown in Fig. 2. 12. The force acting downward at the bottom of the column is
PoA + mg = PqA+ pAgH
where m is the mass of the fluid column, A is its cross-sectional area, and p is its density.
This force must be balanced by the upward force at the bottom of the column, which is
P&4. Therefore,
Pb-Pq = PgH
Since points A and B are at the same elevation in columns of the same fluid, their pres-
sures must be equal (the fluid being measured in the vessel has a much lower density,
such that its pressure P is equal to P A ). Overall,

The densities of the liquids are listed in Table A.4:

The total pressure is

For the gasoline we get

Now convert all pressures to kPa

For the R- 134a we get

to another piston cylinder of cross-sectional area of 0.05 m 2 . Assume both chambers and
the line are filled with hydraulic fluid of density 900 kg/m 3 and the larger second pis-
ton/cylinder is 6 m higher up in elevation. The telescope arm and the buckets have hy-
draulic piston/cylinders moving them, as seen in Fig. 2.14. With an outside atmospheric
pressure of 100 kPa and a net force of 25 kN on the smallest piston, what is the balanc-
ing force on the second larger piston?
Solution
When the fluid is stagnant and at the same elevation we have the same pressure through-
out the fluid. The force balance on the smaller piston is then related to the pressure (we
neglect the rod area) as

Although temperature is a familiar property, defining it exactly is difficult. We are aware
of "temperature" first of all as a sense of hotness or coldness when we touch an object.
We also leam early that when a hot body and a cold body are brought into contact, the hot
body becomes cooler and the cold body becomes warmer. If these bodies remain in con-
tact for some time, they usually appear to have the same hotness or coldness. However,
we also realize that our sense of hotness or coldness is very unreliable. Sometimes very
cold bodies may seem hot, and bodies of different materials that are at the same tempera-
ture appear to be at different temperatures.
Because of these difficulties in defining temperature, we define equality of tempera-
ture- Consider two blocks of copper, one hot and the other cold, each of which" is in con-
tact with a mercury-in-glass thermometer. If these two blocks of copper are brought into
thermal communication, we observe that the electrical resistance of the hot block de-
creases with time and that of the cold block increases with time. After a period of time has
elapsed, however, no further changes in resistance are observed. Similarly, when the
blocks are first brought in thermal communication, the length of a side of the hot block
decreases with time, but the length of a side of the cold block increases with time. After a
period of time, no further change in length of either of the blocks is perceived. In addition,
the mercury column of the thermometer in the hot block drops at first and that in the cold
block rises, but after a period of time no further changes in height are observed. We may
say, therefore, that two bodies have equality of temperature if, when they are in thermal
communication, no change in any observable property occurs.
Now consider the same two blocks of copper and another thermometer. Let one block of
copper be brought into contact with the thermometer until equality of temperature is es-
tablished, and then remove it. Then let the second block of copper be brought into contact
with the thermometer. Suppose that no change in the mercury level of the thermometer
occurs during this operation with the second block. We then can say that both blocks are
in thermal equilibrium with the given thermometer.
The zeroth law of thermodynamics states that when two bodies have equality of
temperature with a third body, they in turn have equality of temperature with each other.

2.10 THE ZEROTH LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS
32 M chapter Two Some Concepts and Definitions
This seems obvious to us because we are so familiar with this experiment. Because the
principle is not derivable from other taws, and because it precedes the first and second
laws of thermodynamics in the logical presentation of thermodynamics, it is called the ze-
roth law of thermodynamics. This law is really the basis of temperature measurement.
Every time a body has equality of temperature with the thermometer, we can say that the
body has the temperature we read on the thermometer. The problem remains of how to re-
late temperatures that we might read on different mercury thermometers or obtain from
different temperature-measuring devices, such as thermocouples and resistance ther-
mometers. This observation suggests the need for a standard scale for temperature mea-
surements.
2.11 Temperature Scales
Two scales are commonly used for measuring temperature, namely the Fahrenheit (after
Gabriel Fahrenheit, 1686-1736) and the Celsius. The Celsius scale was formerly called
the centigrade scale but is now designated the Celsius scale after Anders Celsius
(1701-1744), the Swedish astronomer who devised this scale.
The Fahrenheit temperature scale is used with the English Engineering system of
units, and the Celsius scale with the SI unit system. Until 1954 both of these scales were
based on two fixed, easily duplicated points — the ice point and the steam point. The tem-
perature of the ice point is defined as the temperature of a mixture of ice and water that is
in equilibrium with saturated air at a pressure of 1 atm. The temperature of the steam
point is the temperature of water and steam, which are in equilibrium at a pressure of 1
atm. On the Fahrenheit scale these two points are assigned the numbers 32 and 212, re-
spectively, and on the Celsius scale the points are and 100, respectively. Why Fahren-
heit chose these numbers is an interesting story. In searching for an easily reproducible
point, Fahrenheit selected the temperature of the human body and assigned it the number
96. He assigned the number to the temperature of a certain mixture of salt, ice, and salt
solution. On this scale the ice point was approximately 32. When this scale was slightly
revised and fixed in terms of the ice point and steam point, the normal temperature of the
human body was found to be 98.6 F.
In this text the symbols F and °C will denote the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales, re-
spectively. The symbol Twill refer to temperature on all temperature scales.
At the tenth CGPM in 1954, the Celsius scale was redefined in terms of a single
fixed point and the ideal-gas temperature scale. The single fixed point is the triple point
of water (the state in which the solid, liquid, and vapor phases of water exist together in
equilibrium). The magnitude of the degree is defined in terms of the ideal-gas tempera-
ture scale, which is discussed in Chapter 7. The essential features of this new scale are a
single fixed point and a definition of the magnitude of the degree. The triple point of
water is assigned the value of 0.0 1°C. On this scale the steam point is experimentally
found to be 100.00°C. Thus, there is essential agreement between the old and new tem-
perature scales.
We have not yet considered an absolute scale of temperature. The possibility of
such a scale comes from the second law of thermodynamics and is discussed in Chapter 7.
On the basis of the second law of thermodynamics, a temperature scale that is indepen-
dent of any thermometric substance can be defined. This absolute scale is usually referred
to as the thermodynamic scale of temperature. However, it is very complicated to use this
SUMMARY H 33
scale directly, and therefore, a more practical scale, the International Temperature Scale,
which closely represents the thermodynamic scale, has been adopted.
The absolute scale related to the Celsius scale is the Kelvin scale (after William
Thomson, 1824-1907, who is also known as Lord Kelvin), and is designated K (without
the degree symbol). The relation between these scales is
K = °C 4- 273.15 (2.3)
In 1967, the CGPM defined the kelvin as 1/273.16 of the temperature at the triple point of
water. The Celsius scale is now defined by this equation instead of by its earlier definition.
The absolute scale related to the Fahrenheit scale is the Rankine scale 1 ' and is desig-
nated R. The relation between these scales is
R - F + 459.67 (2.4)
A number of empirically based temperature scales, to standardize temperature mea-
surement and calibration, have been in use over the last 70 years. The most recent of these
is the International Temperature Scale of 1990, or ITS-90. It is based on a number of fixed
and easily reproducible points that are assigned definite numerical values of temperature,
and on specified formulas relating temperature to the readings on certain temperature-
measuring instruments for the purpose of interpolation between the defining fixed points.
Details of the ITS-90 are not considered further in this text. It is noted that this scale is a
practical means for establishing measurements that conform closely to the absolute ther-
modynamic temperature scale.
'UMMARY We j nrroc iuce a thermodynamic system as a control volume, which for a fixed mass is a
control mass. Such a system can be isolated, exchanging neither mass, momentum, or en-
ergy with its surroundings. A closed system versus an open system refers to the ability of
mass exchange with the surroundings. If properties for a substance change, the state
changes and a process occurs. When a substance has gone through several processes re-
turning to the same initial state it has completed a cycle.
Basic units for thermodynamic and physical properties are mentioned and most are
covered in Table A.l. Thermodynamic properties such as density p, specific volume v,
pressure P, and temperature Tare introduced together with units for these. Properties are
classified as intensive, independent of mass (like u), or extensive, proportional to mass
(like V). Students should already be familiar with other concepts from physics such as
force F, velocity V, and acceleration a. Application of Newton's law of motion leads to
the variation of the static pressure in a column of fluid and the measurements of pressure
(absolute and gauge) by barometers and manometers. The normal temperature scale and
the absolute temperature scale are introduced.
You should have learned a number of skills and acquired abilities from studying
this chapter that will allow you to
• Define (choose) a control volume (C.V.) around some matter; sketch the content
and identify storage locations for mass; and identify mass and energy flows crossing
the C.V. surface.
• Know properties P,T,v, and p and their units.
• Know how to look up conversion of units in Table A.l.
• Know that energy is stored as kinetic, potential, or internal (in molecules).
34 H Chapter Two Some Concepts and Definitions
• Know that energy can be transferred.
• Know the difference between (v, p) and (V t m) intensive versus extensive.
• Apply a force balance to a given system and relate it to pressure P.
• Know the difference between a relative (gauge) and absolute pressure P.
• Understand the working of a manometer or a barometer and get AP or P from
heights.
• Know the difference between a relative and absolute temperature T.
• Have an idea about magnitudes (v, p, P, J).
Most of these concepts will be repeated and reinforced in the following chapters such as
properties in Chapter 3, energy transfer as heat and work in Chapter 4, and internal energy
in Chapter 5 together with their applications.

Properties of a ^
Pure Substance j
In the previous chapter we considered three familiar properties of a substance — specific
volume, pressure, and temperature. We now turn our attention to pure substances and
consider some of the phases in which a pure substance may exist, the number of indepen-
dent properties a pure substance may have, and methods of presenting thermodynamic
properties.
Properties and the behavior of substances are very important for our studies of de-
vices and thermodynamic systems. The steam power plant in Fig. 1.1 and the nuclear
propulsion system in Fig. 1.3 have very similar processes, using water as the working
substance. Water vapor (steam) is made by boiling at high pressure in the steam generator
followed by an expansion in the turbine to a lower pressure, a cooling in the condenser,
and a return to the boiler by a pump that raises the pressure. We must know the water
properties to properly size the equipment such as the burners or heat exchangers, turbine,
and pump for the desired transfer of energy and the flow of water. As the water is brought
from liquid to vapor we need to know the temperature for the given pressure, and we
must know the density or specific volume so that the piping can be properly dimensioned
for the flow. If the pipes are too small, the expansion creates excessive velocities, leading
to pressure losses and increased friction, and thus demanding a larger pump and reducing
the turbine work output.
Another example is a refrigerator, shown in Fig. 1 .6, where we need a substance
that will boil from liquid to vapor at a low temperature, say — 20°C. This absorbs energy
from the cold space, keeping it cold. Inside the black grille in the back or at the bottom,
the now hot substance is cooled by air flowing around the grille, so it condenses from
vapor to liquid at a temperature slightly higher than room temperature. When such a sys-
tem is designed, we need to know the pressures at which these processes take place and
the amount of energy, covered in Chapter 5, that is involved. We also need to know how
much volume the substance occupies, the specific volume, so that the piping diameters
can be selected as mentioned for the steam power plant. The substance is selected so that
the pressure is reasonable during these processes; it should not be too high, due to leak-
age and safety concerns, and not too low either, as air might leak into the system.
A final example of a situation where we need to know the substance properties is
the gas turbine and a variation thereof, namely the jet engine shown in Fig. 1.11. In these
systems, the working substance is a gas (very similar to air) and no phase change takes
place. A combustion process burns fuel and air, freeing a large amount of energy, which
heats the gas so that it expands. We need to know how hot the gas gets and how much the
expansion is so that we can analyze the expansion process in the turbine and the exit noz-
zle of the jet engine. In this device, we do need large velocities inside the turbine section
43
44 m Chapter Three Properties of a Pure Substance
and for the exit of the jet engine. This high- velocity flow pushes on the blades in the tur-
bine to create shaft work or pushes on the jet engine (something called thrust) to move the
aircraft forward.
These are just a few examples of complete thermodynamic systems where a sub-
stance goes through several processes involving changes of its thermodynamic state and
therefore its properties. As your studies progress, many other examples will be used to il-
lustrate the general subjects.
3.1 The Pure Substance
A pure substance is one that has a homogeneous and invariable chemical composition. It
may exist in more than one phase, but the chemical composition is the same in all phases.
Thus, liquid water, a mixture of liquid water and water vapor (steam), and a mixture of ice
and liquid water are all pure substances; every phase has the same chemical composition.
In contrast, a mixture of liquid air and gaseous air is not a pure substance because the
composition of the liquid phase is different from that of the vapor phase.
Sometimes a mixture of gases, such as air, is considered a pure substance as long as
there is no change of phase. Strictly speaking, this is not true. As we will see later, we
should say that a mixture of gases such as air exhibits some of the characteristics of a pure
substance as long as there is no change of phase.
In this text the emphasis will be on simple compressible substances. This term des-
ignates substances whose surfagje^eff^ el ectrica l effects are in-
significant when dealing with the sub stanc es. But changes in volume, such as those
associated with the expansion of a gas in a cylinder, are very important. Reference will be
made, however, to other substances for which surface, magnetic, and electrical effects are
important. We will refer to a system consisting of a simple compressible substance as a
simple compressible system.
3.2 VAPOR-LIQUTO-SOLIB-PHASE
EQUILIBRIUM IN A PURE SUBSTANCE
Consider as a system 1 kg of water contained in the piston/cylinder arrangement shown in
™, -« - Fig. 3. la. Suppose that the piston and weight maintain a pressure of 0. 1 MPa in the cylin-
Jfli^Qnif der and that the initial temperature is 20°C. As heat is transferred to the water, the temper-
ature increases appreciably, the specific volume increases slightly, and the pressure
remains constant. When the temperature reaches 99.6°C, additional heat transfer results in
a change of phase, as indicated in Fig. 3.1&. That is, some of the liquid becomes vapor,
and during this process both the temperature and pressure remain constant, but the spe-
cific volume increases considerably. When the last drop of liquid has vaporized, further
transfer of heat results in an increase in both temperature and specific volume of the
vapor, as shown in Fig. 3.1c.
The term saturation temperature designates the temperature at which vaporization
takes place at a given pressure. This pressure is called the saturation pressure for the given
temperature. Thus, for water at 99.6°C the saturation pressure is 0.1 MPa, and for water at
0. 1 MPa the saturation temperature is 99.6°C, For a pure substance there is a definite rela-

tion between saturation pressure and saturation temperature. A typical curve, called the
vapor-pressure curve, is shown in Fig. 3.2.
/If a substance exists as liquid at the saturation temperature and pressure, it is called
( saturated liquid. If the temperature of the liquid is lower than the saturation temperature
for the existing pressure, it is called either a subcooled liquid (implying that the tempera-
ture is lower than the saturation temperature for the given pressure) or a compressed liq-
uid (implying that the pressure is greater than the saturation pressure for the given
temperature). Either term may be used, but the latter term will be used in this text.
When a substance exists as part liquid and part vapor at the saturation temperature,
its quality is defined as the ratio of the mass of vapor to the total mass. Thus, in Fig. 3.16,
if the mass of the vapor is 0.2 kg and the mass of the liquid is 0.8 kg, the quality is 0.2 or
20%. The quality may be considered an mtensive^pjcjierty and has the symbol x. Quality
has meaning only when the substance is in a saturated state, that is, at saturation pressure
and temperature.
If a substance exists as vapor at the saturation temperature, it is called saturated
vapor. (Sometimes the term dry saturated vapor is used to emphasize that the quality is
/ 1 00%.) When the vapor is at a temperature greater than the saturation temperature, it is
/ said to exist as superheated vapor. The pressure and temperature of superheated vapor are
independent properties, since the temperature may increase while the pressure remains
constant. Actually, the substances we call gases are highly superheated vapors.
Consider Fig. 3.1 again. Let us plot on the temperature-volume diagram of Fig.
3.3 the constant -pressure line that represents the states through which the water passes
as it is heated from the initial state of 0.1 MPa and 20°C. Let state A represent the initial
state, B the saturated-liquid state (99. 6°C), and line AB the process in which the liquid
is heated from the initial temperature to the saturation temperature. Point C is the

saturated- vapor state, and line BC is the constant-temperature process in which the
change of phase from liquid to vapor occurs. Line CD represents the process in which
the steam is superheated at constant pressure. Temperature and volume both increase
during this process.
Now let the process take place at a constant pressure of 1 MPa, starting from an ini-
tial temperature of 20°C. Point E represents the initial state, in which the specific volume
is slightly less than that at 0.1 MPa and 20°C. Vaporization begins at point F, where the
temperature is 179.9°C. Point G is the saturated-vapor state, and line GH is the constant-
pressure process in which the steam in superheated.
In a similar manner, a constant pressure of 10 MPa is represented by. line IJKL, for
which the saturation temperature is 311.1°C.
At a pressure of 22.09 MPa, represented by line MNO, we find, however, that there
is no constant-temperature vaporization process. Instead, point N is a point of inflection
with a zero slope. This point is called the critical point. Atjhe_^rjticj^point ^^aturated-

Vapor-Liquid-Solid-Phase Equilibrium in a Pure Substance H 47
A constant-pressure process at a pressure greater than the critical pressure is repre-
sented by line PQ. If water at 40 MPa and 20°C is heated in a constant-pressure process in
a cylinder as shown in Fig. 3.1, there will never be two phases present and the state shown
in Fig. 3.16 will never exist. Instead, there will be a continuous change in density and at
all times there will be only one phase present. The question then is when do we have a liq-
uid and when do we have a vapor? The answer is that this is not a valid question at super-
critical pressures. We simply term the substance a fluid. However, rather arbitrarily, at
temperatures below the critical temperature we usually refer to it as a compressed liquid
and at temperatures above the critical temperature as a superheated vapor. , It should be
emphasized, however, that at pressures above the critical pressure we never have a liquid
and vapor phase of a pure substance existing in equilibrium.
In Fig. 3.3, line NJFB represents the saturated-liquid line and line NKGC represents
the saturated-vapor line.
By convention, the subscript / is u sed to designate a property of a s aturated liqui d
and the subscript g a property of a saturated vap or (subscript g being used to denote satu-
ration temperature and pressure). Thus, a saturation condition involving part liquid and
part vapor such as in Fig. 3.1b can be shown on J-u coordinates as in Fig. 3.4. All of the
liquid present is at state / with specific volume ty and all of the vapor present is at state g
with v g . The total volume is the sum of the liquid volume and the vapor volume, or
V= ?iiq + = m Viq v f + m^Vg
The average specific volume of the system v is then
„ s V '"liq m vap
^ v =£i = ljTVf + ^rv S =V-x)Vf+ (3-D
in terms of the definition of quality x = m np /m.
Using the definition
v /g = v g ~ v f
Equation 3.1 can also be mitten as
v = v f +xv /g (3.2)
Now, the quality x can he viewed as the fraction (v ~ vj)lv fg of the distance between satu-
rated liquid and saturated vapor, as indicated in Fig. 3.4.
Let us now consider another experiment with the piston/cylinder arrangement.
Suppose that the cylinder contains 1 kg of ice at — 20°C, 100 kPa. When heat is trans-
ferred to the ice, the pressure remains constant, the specific volume increases slightly,

and the temperature increases until it reaches 0°C, at which point the tee melts and the
temperature remains constant. In this state the ice is called a saturated solid. For most
substances the specific volume increases during this melting process, but for water the
specific volume of the liquid is less than the specific volume of the solid. When all the
ice has melted, a further heat transfer causes an increase in temperature of the liquid.
If the initial pressure of the ice at -20°C is 0.260 kPa, heat transfer to the ice results
in an increase in temperature to -10°C. At this point, however, the ice passes directly
jronijhejsr^^ injhl0ocj^sj^ Further heat
transfer results in superheating of the vapor.
Finally, consider an initial pressure of the ice of 0.6113 kPa and a temperature of
-20°C. Through heat transfer let the temperature increase until it reaches 0.0 1°C. At this '
point, however, further heat transfer may cause some of the ice to become vapor and some
to become liquid, for at this point it is possible to have the three phases in equilibrium.
This point is called the triple point, which is defined as thejjtetejnjw^^
may be present in eqmh^ium. The pressure and temperature at the triple point for a num-
ber~of substanceTare given in Table 3.2.
This whole matter is best summarized by the diagram of Fig. 3.5, which shows how
the solid, liquid, and vapor phases may exist together in equilibrium. Along the subhma-

distinct change from the liquid phase to the vapor phase above the critical point.
Consider a solid in state A, as shown in Fig. 3.5. When the temperature increases
but the pressure (which is less than the triple-point pressure) is constant, the substance
passes directly from the solid to the vapor phase. Along the constant-pressure line EF, the
substance passes from the solid to the liquid phase at one temperature, and then from the
liquid to the vapor phase at a higher temperature. Constant-pressure line CD passes
through the triple point, and it is only at the triple point that the three phases may exist to-
gether in equilibrium. At a pressure above the critical pressure, such as GH t there is no
sharp distinction between the liquid and vapor phases.
VAFOR-LIQOID-SOLID-PHASE EQUILIBRIUM IN A PURE SUBSTANCE H 49
Although we have made these comments with rather specific reference to water
(only because of our familiarity with water), all pure substances exhibit the same general
behavior. However, the triple-point temperature and critical temperature vary greatly
from one substance to another. For example, the critical temperature of helium, as given
in Table A.2, is 5.3 K. Therefore, the absolute temperature of helium at ambient condi-
tions is over 50 times greater than the critical temperature. In contrast, water has a critical
temperature of 374.14°C (647.29 K), and at ambient conditions the temperature of water
is less than half the critical temperature. Most metals have a much higher critical tempera-
ture than water. When we consider the behavior of a substance in a given state, it is often
helpful to think of this state in relation to the critical state or triple point. For example, if
the pressure is greater than the critical pressure, it is impossible to have a liquid phase and
a vapor phase in equilibrium. Or, to consider another example, the states at which vac-
uum-melting a given metal is possible can be ascertained by a consideration of the proper-
ties at the triple point. Iron at a pressure just above 5 Pa (the triple-point pressure) would
melt at a temperature of about 1535°C (the triple-point temperature).
Figure 3.6 shows the three-phase diagram for carbon dioxide, in which it is seen
(see also Table 3.2) that the triple-point pressure is greater than normal atmospheric pres-
sure, which is very unusual. Therefore, the commonly observed phase transition under
conditions of atmospheric pressure of about 100 kPa is a sublimation from solid directly
to vapor, without passing through a liquid phase, which is why solid carbon dioxide is
commonly referred to as dry ice. We note from Fig. 3.6 that this phase transformation at
100 kPa occurs at a temperature below 200 K.
Finally, it should be pointed out that a pure substance can exist in a number of dif-
ferent solid phases. A transition from one solid phase to another is called an allotropic
transformation. Figure 3.7 shows a number of solid phases for water. A pure substance
can have a number of triple points, but only one triple point has a solid, liquid, and vapor
equilibrium. Other triple points for a pure substance can have two solid phases and a liq-
uid phase, two solid phases and a vapor phase, or three solid phases.

3.3 Independent Properties
of a Pure Substance '
One important reason for introducing the concept of a pure substance is that the state of a
simple compressible pure substance (that is, a pure substance in the absence of motion,
- gravity, and surface, magnetic, or electrical effects) is defined by two indepen dent proper-
^ ties. For example, if the specific volume and temperature of superheated steamlife~sp^ct : *
fled, the state of the steam is determined.
To understand the significance of the term independent property, consider the
saturated-liquid and saturated- vapor states of a pure substance. These two states have
the same pressure and the same temperature, but they are definitely not the same state.
In a saturation state, therefore, pressure and temperature are not independent proper-
ties. Two independent properties such as pressure and specific volume or pressure and
quality are required to specify a saturation state of a pure substance.
The reason for mentioning previously that a mixture of gases, such as air, has the
same characteristics as a pure substance as long as only one phase is present, concerns
precisely this point. The state of air, which is a mixture of gases of definite composition,
is determined by specifying two properties as long as it remains in the gaseous phase. Air
then can be treated as a pure substance.
3,4 Tables of thermodynamic properties
Tables of thermodynamic properties of many substances are available, and in general, all
these tables have the same form. In this section we will refer to the steam tables. The
steam tables are selected both because they are a vehicle for presenting thermodynamic
tables and because steam is used extensively in power plants and industrial processes.
Once the steam tables are understood, other thermodynamic tables can be readily used.
Several different versions of steam tables have been published over the years. The
set included in Appendix B, Table B. 1 , is a summary based on a complicated lit to the be-
havior of water. It is very similar to the Steam Tables by Keenan, Keyes, Hill, and Moore,
published in 1969 and 1978. We will concentrate here on the three properties already dis-
cussed in Chapter 2 and in Section 3.2, namely T, P, and u i and note that the other proper-
ties listed in the set of Tables B. 1, n, h, and s, will be introduced later.
The steam tables in Appendix B consist of five separate tables, as indicated in Fig.
3.8. The region of superheated vapor in Fig. 3.5 is given in Table B.1.3, and that of com-
pressed liquid is given in Table B.I. 4. The compressed-solid region shown in Fig. 3.5 is
not listed in the appendix. The saturated-liquid and saturated-vapor region, as seen in the T
and v diagram of Fig. 3.3 (and as the vaporization line in Fig. 3.5), is listed according to the
values of Tin Table B.l.l and according to the values ofP (TandPare not independent in
the two-phase regions) in Table B.1.2. Similarly, the saturated-solid and saturated- vapor
region is listed according to T in Table B.1.5, but the saturated-solid and saturated- liquid
region, the third phase boundary line shown in Fig. 3.5 is not listed in the appendix.
In Table B.l.l, the first column after the temperature gives the corresponding sat-
uration pressure in kilopascals. The next three columns give specific volume in cubic
meters per kilogram. The first of these columns gives the specific volume of the satu-
rated liquid, v f ; the third column gives the specific volume of the saturated vapor v g ;
and the second column gives the difference between the two, iy g , as defined in Section

As an example, let us calculate the specific volume of saturated steam at 200°C hav-
ing a quality of 70%, Using Eq. 3.1 gives
v = 0.3(0.001 156) + 0.7(0.127 36)
= 0.0895 nrVkg
Table B.1.3 gives the properties of superheated vapor. In the superheated region,
pressure and temperature are independent properties; therefore, for each pressure a large
number of temperatures are given, and for each temperature four thermodynamic proper-
ties are listed, the first one being specific volume. Thus, the specific volume of steam at a
pressure of 0.5 MPa and 200°C is 0.4249 m 3 /kg.
Table B.1.4 gives the properties of the compressed liquid. To demonstrate the use ,
of this table, consider a piston and a cylinder (as shown in Fig. 3.9) that contains 1 kg of
saturated-liquid water at 100°C. Its properties are given hi Table B.l.l, and we note that
the pressure is 0.1013 MPa and the specific volume is 0.001 044 nrVkg. Suppose the pres-
sure is increased to 10 MPa while the temperature is held constant at 100°C by the neces- ■
sary transfer of heat, Q. Since water is slightly compressible, we would expect a slight
decrease in specific volume during this process. Table B.1.4 gives this specific volume as
0.001 039 nrVkg. This is only a slight decrease, and only a small error would be made if
one assumed that the volume of a compressed liquid is equal to the specific volume of the
saturated liquid at the same temperature. In many situations this is the most convenient
procedure, particularly when compressed-liquid data are not available. It is very important
to note, however, that the specific volume of saturated liquid at the given pressure, 10

MPa, does not give a good approximation. This value, from Table B.1.2, at a temperature
of 31 1.1 °C, is 0.001 452 m 3 /kg, which is in error by almost 40%.
Table B.1.5 of the steam tables gives the properties of saturated solid and saturated
vapor that are in equilibrium. The first column gives the temperature, and the second col-
umn gives the corresponding saturation pressure. As would be expected, all these pres-
sures are less than the triple-point pressure. The next two columns give the specific
volume of the saturated solid and saturated vapor.
Appendix B also includes thermodynamic tables for several other substances; refriger-
ant fluids ammonia, R-12, R-22, and R-134a and the cryogenic fluids nitrogen and methane.
In each case, only two tables are given — saturated liquid-vapor listed by temperature
(equivalent to Table B.l.l for water), and superheated vapor (equivalent to Table B.l .3).
Let us now consider a number of examples to illustrate the use of thermodynamic
tables for water and also the other substances listed in Appendix B.
EXAMPLE 3.1 Determine the phase for each of the following water states using the Appendix B tables
and indicate the relative position in the P-v, T-v, and P-T diagrams.
a. 1201C, 500 kPa
b. 120X, 0.5 mVkg
Solution
a. Enter Table B.l.l with 120°C. The saturation pressure is 198.5 kPa, so we have a
compressed liquid, point a in Fig. 3.10, That is above the saturation line for 120°C.
We could also have entered Table B.1.2 with 500 kPa and found the saturation tem-
perature as 151.86°C, so we would say it is subcooled liquid. That is to the left of the
saturation line for 500 kPa as seen in the P-T diagram.
b. Enter Table B.l.l with 120°C and notice
v f = 0.00106 < v < v g = 0.S9186 mVkg
so the state is a two phase mixture of liquid and vapor, point b in Fig. 3. 10. The state
is to the left of the saturated vapor state and to the right of the saturated liquid state
both seen in the T-v diagram.

EXAMPLE 3.2 Determine the phase for each of the following states using the Appendix B tables and in-
dicate the relative position in the P-v, T-v and P-T diagrams, as in Figs. 3. 1 1 and 3.12.
a. Ammonia 30°C, 1000 kPa
b. R-22 200kPa, O.I5m 3 /kg
Solution
a. Enter Table B.2.1 with 30°C. The saturation pressure is 1167 kPa. As we have a
lower P, it is a superheated vapor state. We could also have entered with 1000 kPa
and found a saturation temperature of slightly less than 25°C, so we have a state that
is superheated about 5°C.
b. Enter Table B.4. 1 with 200 kPa and notice
u>u g ~0.1119m 3 /kg
so from the P-v diagram the state is superheated vapor. We can find the state in
Table B.4.2 between 40 and 50°C.
TABLES OF THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES H 55
EXAMPLE 3.3 Determine the temperature and quality (if defined) for water at a pressure of 300 kPa and
at each of these specific volumes:
a. 0.5 nrVkg
b. l.OmVkg
Solution
For each state, it is necessary to determine what phase or phases are present, in order to
know which table is the appropriate one to find the desired state information. That is, we
must compare the given information with the appropriate phase boundary values. Con-
sider a T-v diagram (or a P-u diagram) such as in Fig. 3.8. For the constant-pressure
line of 300 kPa shown in Fig. 3.13, the values for tyand v g shown there are found from
the saturation table, Table B.1.2.
a. By comparison with the values in Fig. 3.13, the state at which v is 0.5 nrVkg is seen
to be in the liquid-vapor two-phase region, at which T = I33.6°C, and the quality x is
found from Eq. 3.2 as
Note that if we did not have Table B.1.2 (as would be the case with the other sub-
stances listed in Appendix B), we could have interpolated in Table B. 1 . 1 between the
130°C and 135°C entries to get the lyand v g values for 300 kPa.
b. By comparison with the values in Fig. 3.13, the state at which vis 1 .0 nrVkg is seen to
be in the superheated vapor region, in which quality is undefined, and the temperature
for which is found from Table B. 1.3. In this case, Tis found by linear interpolation
between the 300 kPa specific-volume values at 300°C and 400°C, as shown in Fig.
3.14. This is an approximation for T, since the actual relation along the 300 kPa
constant-pressure line is not exactly linear.

A rigid vessel contains saturated amrnonia vapor at 20°C. Heat is transferred to the sys-
tem nntil the temperature reaches 40°C. What is the final pressure?
Solution
Since the volume does not change during this process, the specific volume also remains
constant. From the ammonia tables, Table B.2. 1 , we have
vi = v 2 = 0.149 22 mVkg
Since v g at 40°C is less than 0. 149 22 mVkg, it is evident that in the final state the
ammonia is superheated vapor. By interpolating between the 800- and 1000-kPa
columns of Table B.2.2, we find that
P 2 = 945 kPa
EXAMPLE 3.5E A rigid vessel contains saturated ammonia vapor at 70 F. Heat is transferred to the sys-
tem until the temperature reaches 120 F. What is the final pressure?
Solution
Since the volume does not change during this process, the specific volume also remains
constant. From the ammonia tables, Table F.8,
v x = v 2 = 2.311 ftVlbm
Since v g at 120 F is less than 2.31 1 ftVlbm, it is evident that in the final state the
ammonia is superheated vapor. By interpolating between the 125- and 150-lbf/in 2
columns of Table F.8, we find that
P 2 = 145 lbfVin 2
EXAMPLE 3.6 Determine the missing property of P-v-T and x if applicable for the following states.

b. Nitrogen: 10OK, 0.008 nrVkg
Solution
For nitrogen the properties are listed in Table B.6 with temperature in Kelvin.
a. Enter in Table B.6. 1 with T = 273.2 - 53.2 = 220 K, which is higher than the criti-
cal T in the last entry. Then proceed to the superheated vapor tables. We would also
have realized this by looking at the critical properties in Table A.2. From Table B.6,2

Solution
Start in Table B.U with 200°C and note that v>u g = 0.127 36 m 3 /kg so we have su-
perheated vapor. Proceed to Table B.1.3 at any subsection with 200°C; say we start at
200 kPa. There the v = 1.080 34, which is too large so the pressure must be higher. For

3,5 THERMODYNAMIC SU&FACES
The matter discussed to this point can be well summarized by a consideration of a
pressure-specific volume-temperature surface. Two such surfaces are shown in Figs. 3.18
and 3.19. Figure 3.18 shows a substance such as water in which the specific volume in-
creases during freezing. Figure 3.19 shows a substance in which the specific volume de-
creases during freezing.
In these diagrams the pressure, specific volume, and temperature are plotted on
mutually perpendicular coordinates, and each possible equilibrium state is thus repre-
sented by a point on the surface. This follows directly from the fact that a pure substance
has only two independent intensive properties. All points along a quasi-equilibrium
process He on the P-v-T surface, since such a process always passes through equilibrium
states.
The regions of the surface that represent a single phase— the solid, liquid, and vapor
phases— are indicated. These surfaces are curved. The two-phase regions— the solid-liquid,
solid-vapor, and liquid-vapor regions— are ruled surfaces. By this we understand that they
are made up of straight Unes'parallel to the specific-volume axis. This, of course, follows
from the fact that in the two-phase region, lines of constant pressure are also lines of con-
stant temperature, although the specific volume may change. The triple point actually ap-
pears as the triple line on the P-u~T surface, since the pressure and temperature of the triple
point are fixed, but the specific volume may vary, depending on the proportion of each
phase.
It is also of interest to note the pressure-temperature and pressure-volume projec-
tions of these surfaces. We have already considered the pressure-temperature diagram
for a substance such as water. It is on this diagram that we observe the triple point. Var-
ious lines of constant temperature are shown on the pressure-volume diagram, and the

corresponding constant-temperature sections are lettered identically on the P-v~T sur-
face. The critical isotherm has a point of inflection at the critical point,
^ One notices that for a substance such as water, which expands on freezing, the
freezing temperature decreases with an increase in pressure. For a substance that contracts
on freezing, the freezing temperature increases as the pressure increases. Thus, as the
pressure of vapor is increased along the constant-temperature line abcdef'm Fig. 3.18, a
substance that expands on freezing first becomes solid and then liquid. For the substance
that contracts on freezing, the corresponding constant-temperature line (Fig. 3.19) indi-
cates that as the pressure on the vapor is increased, it first becomes liquid and then solid.

3.6 the p-v-t behavior of low-
and Moderate-Density Gases
One form of energy possession by a system discussed in Section 2.6 was intennoiecular
(IM) potential energy, that associated with the forces between molecules. It was stated
there that at very low densities the average distances between molecules is so large that the
IM potential energy may effectively be neglected. In such a case, the particles would be in-
dependent of one another, a situation referred to as an ideal gas. Under this approximation,
62 B Chapter Three Properties of a Pure Substance
it has been observed experimentally that, to a close degree, a very low density gas behaves
according to the ideal gas equation of state
PV= nRT, Pv=RT j (3,3)
in which n is the number of kmol of gas, or
= m = kg
U M kg/kmol (3 ' 4)
In Eq. 3.3, R is the universal gas constant, the value of which is, for any gas,
R = 8.3145 J®*™ = 8.3145 kJ
kmol K ' kmol K
and T is the absolute (ideal gas scale) temperature in kelvins (i.e., J(K) = T(°C) +
273.15). It is important to note that Tmust always be the absolute temperature whenever
it is being used to multiply or divide in an equation. The ideal gas absolute temperature
scale will be discussed in more detail in Chapter 7. In the English Engineering system,
£= 1545 ftlbf

Substituting Eq. 3.4 into Eq. 3.3 and rearranging, we find that the ideal gas equation
of state can be written conveniently in the form
\_PV = mRT, Pv = RT^ (3.5)
where
= # CM)
in which R is a different constant for each particular gas. The value of R for a number of
substances is given in Table A. 5 of Appendix A, and also in English units in Table F.4.

The volume flow rate is

and the mass flow rate is m = pV ~ Vlv. At close to room conditions the carbon dioxide
is an ideal gas, so PV = mRT or v = RT/P, and from Table A.5 we have the ideal gas

Because of its simplicity, the ideal-gas equation of state is very convenient to use in
thermodynamic calculations. However, two questions are now appropriate. The ideal-gas
equation of state is a good approximation at low density. But what constitutes low den-
sity? Or, expressed in other words, over what range of density will the ideal-gas equation
of state hold with accuracy? The second question is, how much does an actual gas at a
given pressure and temperature deviate from ideal-gas behavior?
One specific example in response to these questions is shown in Fig. 3.21, a T-v dia-
gram for water that indicates the error in assuming ideal gas for saturated vapor and for su-
perheated vapor. As would be expected, at very low pressure or high temperature the error is
small, hut this becomes severe as the density increases. The same general trend would be the

case in referring to Fig, 3. 18 or 3.19. As the state becomes further removed from the satura-
tion region (i.e., high Tor low P), the,gas behavior becomes closer to the ideal-gas model.
A more quantitative study of the question of the ideal-gas approximation can be
conducted by introducing the compressibility factor Z, defined as
\ Z=^ I
\ RT j
i /
I Pv=ZRT j ■■- (3.7)
Note that for an ideal gas Z = 1 , and the deviation of Z from unity is a measure of
the deviation of the actual relation from the ideal-gas equation of state.
Figure 3.22 shows a skeleton compressibility chart for nitrogen. From this chart we
make three observations. The first is that at all temperatures Z 1 as P -> 0. That is, as
the pressure approaches zero, the P-v-T behavior closely approaches that predicted by
the ideal-gas equation of state. Note also that at temperatures of 300 K and above (that is,
room temperature and above) the compressibility factor is near unity up to pressure of
about 10 MPa. This means that the ideal-gas equation of state can be used for nitrogen
(and, as it happens, air) over this range with considerable accuracy.
We further note that at lower temperatures or at very high pressures, the compressi-
bility factor deviates significantly from the ideal-gas value. Moderate-density forces of at-
traction tend to pull molecules together, resulting in a value of Z < 1, whereas very high
density forces of repulsion tend to have the opposite effect.
If we examine compressibility diagrams for other pure substances, we find that the di-
agrams are all similar in the characteristics described above for nitrogen, at least in a quali-
tative sense. Quantitatively the diagrams are all different, since the critical temperatures and
pressures of different substances vary over wide ranges, as evidenced from the values listed
66 B Chapter Three Properties of a Pure Substance
in Table A.2. Is there a way in which we can put all of these substances on a common
basis? To do so, we "reduce" the properties with respect to the values at the critical point.
The reduced properties are defined as
p
reduced pressure = P r — P c = critical pressure
" c
T
reduced temperature — T r = — , T c — critical temperature (3.8)
■* c
These equations state that the reduced property for a given state is the value of this
property in this state divided by the value of this same property at the critical point.
If lines of constant T r are plotted on a Z versus P r diagram, a plot such as that in Fig.
D.l is obtained. The striking fact is that when such Z versus P r diagrams are prepared for
a number of different substances, all of them very nearly coincide, especially when the
substances have simple, essentially spherical molecules. Correlations for substances with
more complicated molecules are reasonably close, except near or at saturation or at high
density. Thus, Fig. D.l is actually a generalized diagram for simple molecules, which
means that it represents the average behavior for a number of different simple substances.
When such a diagram is used for a particular substance, the results will generally be
somewhat in error. However, if P~v-T information is required for a substance in a region
where no experimental measurements have been made, this generalized compressibility
diagram will give reasonably accurate results. We need know only the critical pressure
and critical temperature to use this basic generalized chart.
In our study of thermodynamics, we will use Fig. D. 1 primarily to help us decide
whether, in a given circumstance, it is reasonable to assume ideal-gas behavior as a model.
For example, we note from the chart that if the pressure is very low (that is, <P C ), the ideal-
gas model can be assumed with good accuracy, regardless of the temperature. Furthermore,
at high temperatures (that is, greater than about twice T c % the ideal-gas model can be as-
sumed with good accuracy to pressures as high as four or five times P c . When the tempera-
ture is less than about twice the critical temperature and the pressure is not extremely low,
we are in a region, commonly termed superheated vapor, in which the deviation from ideal-
gas behavior may be considerable. In this region it is preferable to use tables of thermody-
namic properties or charts for a particular substance, as discussed in Section 3.4.

EXAMPLE 3,11 Is it reasonable to assume ideal-gas behavior at each of the given states?
a. Nitrogen at 20°C, 1.0 MPa
b. Carbon dioxide at 20°C, 1.0 MPa
c. Ammonia at 20°C, 1.0 MPa
Solution
In each case it is first necessary to check phase boundary and critical state data.
a. For nitrogen, the critical properties are, from Table A.2, 126.2 K, 3.39 MPa. Since
the given temperature, 293.2 K is more than twice T c and the reduced pressure is less
than 0.3, ideal gas behavior is a very good assumption.

67
b. For carbon dioxide, the critical properties are 304,1 K, 7.38 MPa. Therefore, the reduced
properties are 0.96 and 0.136. From Appendix Fig D.l, C0 2 is a gas (although T < T c )
with a Zof about 0.95, so the ideal-gas model is accurate to within about 5% in this case.
c. The ammonia tables, Appendix B.2, give the most accurate information. From Table
B.2. 1 at 20°C, P g = 858 kPa. Since the given pressure of 1 MPa is greater than P g ,
this state is a compressed liquid, and not a gas.

EXAMPLE 3,13 Propane in a steel bottle of volume 0. 1 m 3 has a quality of 1 0% at a temperature of 1 5°C.
Use the generalized compressibility chart to estimate the total propane mass and to find
the pressure.
Solution
To use the generalized chart we need the reduced pressure and temperature. From Table A.2
for propane, P c = 4250 kPa and T c ~ 369.8 K, The reduced temperature is, from Eq. 3.8,

Instead of the ideal-gas model to represent gas behavior, or even the generalized
compressibility chart, which is approximate, it is desirable to have an equation of state
that accurately represents the P-u~T behavior for a particular gas over the entire super-
heated vapor region. Such an equation is necessarily more complicated and conse-
quently more difficult to use. Many such equations have been proposed and used to
correlate the observed behavior of gases. To illustrate the nature and complexity of
these equations, we present one of the best known, the Benedict-Webb-Rubin equation
of state:
KT RTB -A -C^ RTb - a a* _g/ y) ^
y v 2 ' v 3 v 6 v'T 2 { v 2 ) { y)
This equation contains eight empirical constants and is accurate to densities of about
twice the critical density. The empirical constants for the Benedict-Webb-Rubin equation
for a number of substances are given in Appendix D.
An equation of state that accurately describes the relation among pressure, tempera-
ture, and specific volume is rather cumbersome and obtaining the solution requires con-
siderable time. When we use a digital computer, it is often most convenient to determine
the thermodynamic properties in a given state from such equations. However, in hand cal-
Computerized Tables H 69
dilations, it is much more convenient to tabulate values of pressure, temperature, specific
volume, and other thermodynamic properties for various substances. Such tables have
been presented in Appendix B.
3.7 COMPUTERIZED TABLES
Most of the tables in the appendix are supplied in a computer program on the disk accom-
panying this. book. The main program operates with a visual interface in the Windows en-
vironment on a PC-type computer and is generally self-explanatory.
The main program covers the full set of tables for water, refrigerants, and cryogenic
fluids, as in Tables B.l to B.7 including the compressed liquid region, which is only
printed for water. For these substances a small graph with the P~o diagram shows the re-
gion around the critical point down toward the triple line covering the compressed liquid,
two-phase liquid-vapor, dense fluid, and superheated vapor regions. As a state is selected
and the properties computed, a thin crosshair set of lines indicates the state in the diagram
so this can be seen with a visual impression of the state's location.
Ideal gases are covered corresponding to the Tables A.7 for air and A.8 or A.9 for
other ideal gases. You are able to select the substance and the units to work in for all the
various table sections giving a wider choice than the printed tables. Metric units (SI) or
standard English units for the properties can be used as well as a mass basis (kg or ibm) or
a mole basis, satisfying the need for the most common applications.
The generalized chart, Fig. D.l, with the compressibility factor, is included to allow
a more accurate value of Z to be obtained than can be read from the graph. This is particu-
larly useful for the case of a two-phase mixture where the saturated liquid and saturated
vapor values are needed. Besides the compressibility factor, this part of the program in-
cludes correction terms beyond ideal-gas approximations for changes in the other thermo-
dynamic properties.
The only mixture application that is included with the program is moist air.

Work and Heat
In this chapter we consider work and heat. It is essential for the student of thermodynam-
ics to understand clearly the definitions of both work and heat, because the correct analy-
sis of many thermodynamic problems depends on distinguishing between them.
Work and heat are energy in transfer from one system to another and thus play a
crucial role in most thermodynamic systems or devices. As we want to analyze such sys-
tems, we need to model the heat and work as functions of properties and parameters char-
acteristic of the system or how it functions. An understanding of the physics involved
allows us to construct a model for the heat and work and use the result in our analysis of
the energy transfers and changes, which we will do with the first law of thermodynamics
in Chapter 5.
To facilitate an understanding of the basic concepts we present a number of physi-
cal arrangements that will enable us to express the work done from changes in the system
during a process. We will also examine work that is the result of a given process without
going into details about how the process physically can be made to occur. This is done
because such a description will be too complex and involve concepts that are not covered
so far, but at least we can examine the result of the process.
A general description of heat transfer in different situations is a subject that usually
is studied separately. However, a very simple introduction is beneficial so that the heat
transfer does not become too abstract and we can relate it to the processes we examine.
Heat transfer by conduction, convection (flow), and radiation is presented in terms of
very simple models, emphasizing that it is driven by a temperature difference.
4.1 DEFINITION OF WORK
Work is usually defined as a force F acting through a displacement ,v, where the displace-
ment is in the direction of the force. That is
(4.1)
This is a very useful relationship becausertenables us to find the work required to raise a
weight, to stretch a wire, or to move a charged particle through a magnetic field.
However, when treating thermodynamics from a macroscopic point of view, it is
advantageous to tie in the definition of work with the concepts of systems, properties, and
processes. We therefore define work as follows: Work is done by a system if the sole ef-
Hl^^^g^ feet on the surroundings (everything external to the system) could be the raising of a
"~ weight. Notice that the raising of a weight is in effect a force acting through a distance.
Notice also that our definition does not state that a weight was actually raised or that a

boundary
force actually acted through a given distance, but that the sole effect external to the sys-
tem could be the raising of a weight. Work done by a system is considered positive and
work done on a system is considered negative. The symbol W designates the work done
by a system.
In general, work is a form of energy in transit, that is, energy being transferred
across a system boundary. The concept of energy and energy storage or possession has
been discussed in some detail in Section 2.6. Work is the form of energy that fulfills the
definition given in the preceding paragraph.
Let us illustrate this definition of work with a few examples. Consider as a system
the battery and motor of Fig. 4.1c and let the motor drive a fan. Does work cross the
boundary of the system? To answer this question using the definition of work given ear-
lier, replace the fan with the pulley and weight arrangement shown in Fig. 4.1b. As the
motor turns, the weight is raised, and the sole effect external to the system is the raising of
a weight. Thus, for our original system of Fig. 4.1a, we conclude that work is crossing the
boundary of the system, since the sole effect external to the system could be the raising of
a weight.
Let the boundaries of the system be changed now to include only the battery shown
in Fig. 4.2. Again we ask the question, does work cross the boundary of the system? To
answer this question, we need to ask a more general question; Does the flow of electrical
energy across the boundary of a system constitute work?
The only limiting factor in having the sole external effect be the raising of a weight
is the inefficiency of the motor. However, as we design a more efficient motor, with lower
bearing and electrical losses, we recognize that we can approach a certain limit that meets
the requirement of having the only external effect be the raising of a weight. Therefore,
Pulley
FIGURE 4.2 Example

system boundary.
86 H Chapter Four Work and Heat
we can conclude that when there is a flow of electricity across the boundary of a system,
as in Fig. 4.2, it is work.
42 Units for Work
As already noted, work done by a system, such as that done by a gas expanding against a
piston, is positive, and work done on a system, such as that done by a piston compressing
a gas, is negative. Thus, positive work means that energy leaves the system, and negative
work means that energy is added to the system.
Our definition of work involves raising of a weight, that is, the product of a unit
force (one newton) acting through a unit distance (one meter). This unit for work in SI
units is called the joule (J)
1 J - INm
Power is the time rate of doing work and is designated by the symbol W:
dt
The unit for power is a rate of work of one joule per second, which is a watt ( W):
I W = 1 J/s
A familiar unit for power in English units is the horsepower (hp), where
1 hp - 550 ft lbf/s
Note that the work crossing the boundary of the system in Fig. 4.1 is that associated
with a rotating shaft. To get the expression for power we use the differential work from
Eq. 4.1 as
BW=Fdx = Frd6 = TdB
that is, force acting through a distance dx or a torque (T = Ft') acting through an angle of
rotation as shown in Fig. 4.3. Now the power becomes
W=§E = F 4!L = F yf = Fr d9. = Tco (4,2)
dt dt dt v ;
that is, a force times rate of displacement (velocity) or a torque times angular velocity.

4.3 work done at the moving boundary
oe a simple Compressible System
We have already noted that there are a variety of ways in which work can be done on
or by a system. These include work done by a rotating shaft, electrical work, and the
work done by the movement of the system boundary, such as the work done in moving
the piston in a cylinder. In this section we will consider in some detail the work done
at the moving boundary of a simple compressible system during a quasi- equilibrium
process.
Consider as a system the gas contained in a cylinder and piston, as in Fig. 4.4. Let
one of the small weights be removed from the piston, which will cause the piston to
move upward a distance dL. We can consider this quasi-equilibrium process and calcu-
late the amount of work W done by the system during this process. The total force on
the piston is PA, where P is the pressure of the gas and A is the area of the piston.
Therefore, the work S W is
SW=PAdL
But A dL ~ dV, the change in volume of the gas. Therefore,

(4.3)
The work done at the moving boundary during a given quasi-equilibrium process can be
found by integrating Eq. 4.3. However, this integration can be performed only if we know
the relationship between P and V during this process. This relationship may be expressed
in the form of an equation, or it may be shown in the form of a graph.
Let us consider a graphical solution first. We use as an example a compression
process such as occurs during the compression of air in a cylinder, Fig. 4.5. At the begin-
ning of the process the piston is at position 1, and the pressure is relatively low. This state
is represented on a pressure-volume diagram (usually referred to as a P—V diagram). At
the conclusion of the process the piston is in position 2, and the corresponding state of the
gas is shown at point 2 on the P—V diagram. Let us assume that this compression was a
quasi-equilibrium process and that during the process the system passed through the states
shown by the line connecting states 1 and 2 on the P—V diagram. The assumption of a
quasi-equilibrium process is essential here because each point on line 1-2 represents a
definite state, and these states will correspond to the actual state of the system only if the
deviation from equilibrium is infinitesimal. The work done on the air during this compres-
sion process can be found by integrating Eq. 4.3:

The symbol t W 2 is to be interpreted as the work done during the process from state 1 to
state 2. It is clear from examining the P-V diagram that the work done during this
process,
\\pdv
is represented by the area under the curve 1-2, area a-\-2-b-a. In this example the vol-
ume decreased, and the area a -\-2-b-a represents work done on the system. If the
process bad proceeded from state 2 to state 1 along the same path, the same area would
represent work done by the system.
Further consideration of a P-V diagram, such as Fig. 4.6, leads to another important
conclusion. It is possible to go from state 1 to state 2 along many different quasi-equilib-
rium paths, such as A, B, or C. Since the area underneath each curve represents the work
for each process, the amount of work done during each process not only is a function of
the end states of the process but depends on the path that is followed in going from one
state to another. For this reason work is called a path function or, in mathematical par-
lance, 8Wis an inexact differential.
This concept leads to a brief consideration of point and path functions or, to use an-
other term, exact and inexact differentials. Thermodynamic properties are point functions,
a name that comes from the fact that for a given point on a diagram (such as Fig. 4.6) or
surface (such as Fig. 3.18), the state is fixed, and thus there is a definite value of each

property corresponding to this point. The differentials of point functions are exact differ-
entials, and the integration is simply
-2
dv= r 2 - v x
i
Thus, we can speak of the volume in state 2 and the volume in state 1 , and the
change in volume depends only on the initial and final states.
Work, however, is a path function, for, as has been indicated, the work done in a quasi-
equilibrium process between two given states depends on the path followed. The differentials
of path functions are inexact differentials, and the symbol 8 will be used in this text to desig-
nate inexact differentials (in contrast to d for exact differentials). Thus, for work, we write
-2
1
It would be more precise to use the notation [ W Ui which would indicate the work
done during the change from state 1 to state 2 along path ^, However, it is implied in the
notation , W 2 that the process between states 1 and 2 has been specified. It should be noted
that we never speak about the work in the system in state 1 or state 2, and thus we would
never write W 2 ~ W { .
In evaluating the integral of Eq. 4.4, we should always keep in mind that we wish to
determine the area under the curve in Fig. 4.6. In connection with this point, we identify
the following two classes of problems.
1. The relationship between P and V is given in terms of experimental data or in
graphical form (as, for example, the trace on an oscilloscope). Therefore, we may
evaluate the integral, Eq. 4.4, by graphical or numerical integration.
2. The relationship between P and V makes it possible to fit an analytical relationship
between them. We may then integrate directly.
One common example of this second type of functional relationship is a process
called a polytropic process, one in which
PV n - constant
throughout the process. The exponent n may possibly be any value from — co to +«>, depend-
ing on the particular process. For this type of process, we can integrate Eq. 4.4 as follows:
PV*= constant - PiH= p 2 V l

PK= constant = P X V X = P 2 V 2

and
f*Pdr= Pfr Hf-P^ ln^ (4.6)
Note that in Eqs. 4.5 and 4.6 we did not say that the work is equal to the expressions
given in these equations. These expressions give us the value of a certain integral, that is,
a mathematical result. Whether or not that integral equals the work in a particular process
depends on the result of a thermodynamic analysis of that process. It is important to keep
the mathematical result separate from the thermodynamic analysis, for there are many sit-
uations in which work is not given by Eq. 4.4.
The polytropic process as described demonstrates one special functional relation-
ship between P and V during a process. There are many other possible relations, some of
which will be examined in the problems at the end of this chapter.
EXAMPLE 4.1 Consider as a system the gas in the cylinder shown in Fig. 4.7; the cylinder is fitted with
a piston on which a number of small weights are placed. The initial pressure is 200 kPa,
and the initial volume of the gas is 0.04 m 3 .
a. Let a Bunsen burner be placed under the cylinder, and let the volume of the gas in-
crease to 0.1 m 3 while the pressure remains constant. Calculate the work done by the
system during this process.
x W 2 = ^PdV
Since the pressure is constant, we conclude from Eq. 4.4 that
1 W 2 =p\\v = P{V 2 -V 1 )
J¥ 2 = 200 kPa X (0,1 - 0.04)m 3 = 12.0 kJ
b. Consider the same system and initial conditions, but at the same time as the Bunsen
burner is under the cylinder and the piston is rising, let weights be removed from
the piston at such a rate that, during the process, the temperature of the gas remains
constant.
If we assume that the ideal-gas model is valid, then, from Eq. 3.5,
PV^mRT
We note that this is a polytropic process with exponent n = 1. From our analysis, we
conclude that the work is given by Eq. 4.4 and that the integral in this equation is
given by Eq. 4.6. Therefore,

such a rate that the expression PV 13 = constant describes the relation between pres-
sure and volume during the process. Again the final volume is 0.1 m 3 . Calculate the

This is a polytropic process in which n — 1.3. Analyzing the process, we con-

Since SW = P dV for a quasi-equilibrium process, the work is zero, because
there is no change in volume.

in which PV 1 ' 3 = constant, and line \-2d the constant-volume process. The student
should compare the relative areas under each curve with the numerical results obtained
for the amounts of work done.

EXAMPLE 4.2 Consider a slightly different piston/cylinder arrangement as shown in Fig. 4.9. In this
example the piston is loaded with a mass, m p , the outside atmosphere P Qj a linear spring,
and a single point force F lt The piston traps the gas inside with a pressure P. A force
balance on the piston in the direction of motion yields

depends on how the spring is installed. The force balance then gives the gas pressure by
division with the area A as
P = Po + [m p g + F l + k s (x~x )]/A
To illustrate the process in a P-V diagram, the distance x is converted to volume
by division and multiplication with A :
This relation gives the pressure as a linear function of the volume, with the line
having a slope of C 2 = kJA 2 . Possible values of P and Fare as shown in Fig. 4.10 for
an expansion. Regardless of what substance is inside, any process must proceed along
the line in the P-V diagram. The work term in a quasi-equilibrium process then fol-
lows as

For a contraction instead of expansion, the process would proceed in the opposite direc-
tion from the initial point 1 along a line of the same slope shown in Fig. 4.10.

Solution
The forces acting on the piston, gravitation constant, external atmosphere at constant

WORK DONE AT THE MOVING BOUNDARY OF A SIMPLE COMPRESSIBLE SYSTEM M 95
In this section we have discussed boundary movement work in a quasi-equilibrium
process. We shouid also realize that there may very well be boundary movement work in
a nonequiiibrium process. Then the total force exerted on the piston by the gas inside the
cylinder, PA, does not equal the external force, F ext , and the work is not given by Eq. 4.3.
The work can, however, be evaluated in terms of F Mt or, dividing by area, an equivalent
external pressure, P ext . The work done at the moving boundary in this case is
8W = F tM t!L = P at dV (4.7)
Evaluation of Eq. 4.7 in any particular instance requires a knowledge of how the external
force or pressure changes during the process.
EXAMPLE 4.5
FIGURE 4.14
Example of a
nonequiiibrium process.
Consider the system shown in Fig. 4.14 in which the piston of mass m p is initially held
in place by a pin. The gas inside the cylinder is initially at pressure P l and volume V lt
When the pin is now released, the external force per unit area acting on the system (gas)
boundary is comprised of two parts:
P a t = F*xlA = P + m p g!A
Calculate the work done by the system when the piston has come to rest.
After the piston is released, the system is exposed to the boundary pressure equal
to P m , which dictates the pressure inside the system, as discussed in Section 2.8 in con-
nection with Fig. 2.9. We further note that neither of the two components of this external
force will change with a boundary movement, since the cylinder is vertical (gravitational
force) and the top is open to the ambient surroundings (movement upward merely
pushes the air out of the way). If the initial pressure P x is greater than that resisting the
boundary, the piston will move upward at a finite rate, that is, in a nonequiiibrium
process, with the cylinder pressure eventually coming to equilibrium at the value P est . If
we were able to trace the average cylinder pressure as a function of time, it would typi-
cally behave as shown in Fig. 4.15. However, the work done by the system during this
process is done against the force resisting the boundary movement and is therefore given
by Eq. 4.7. Also, since the external force is constant during this process, the result is

where V 2 is greater than V h and the work by the system is positive. If the initial pressure
had been less than the boundary pressure, the piston would have moved downward,
compressing the gas, with the system eventually coming to equilibrium at P extJ at a vol-
ume less than the initial volume, and the work would be negative, that is, done on the
system by its surroundings.
44 Other Systems That Involve work
In the preceding section we considered the work done at the moving boundary of a simple
compressible system during a quasi-equilibrium process and also during a nonequilibrium
process. There are other types of systems in which work is done at a moving boundary. In
this section we briefly consider three such systems, a stretched wire, a surface film, and
electrical work.
Consider as a system a stretched wire that is under a given tension 2T. When the
length of the wire changes by the amount dL, the work done by the system is
W=-VdL (4.8)
The minus sign is necessary because work is done by the system when dL is negative.
This equation can be integrated to have
,JF 2 = - J Vdt (4.9)
The integration can be performed either graphically or analytically if the relation between
9" and L is known. The stretched wire is a simple example of the type of problem in solid-
body mechanics that involves the calculation of work.
EXAMPLE 4,6 A metallic wire of initial length L is stretched. Assuming elastic behavior, determine
the work done in terms of the modulus of elasticity and the strain.
Let a = stress, e = strain, and E = the modulus of elasticity.

Now consider a system that consists of a liquid film having a surface tension SP. A
schematic arrangement of such a film, maintained on a wire frame, one side of which can
be moved, is shown in Fig. 4.16. When the area of the film is changed, for example, by
sliding the movable wire along the frame, work is done on or by the film. When the area
changes by an amount dA, the work done by the system is
SW= -VdA (4,10)
For finite changes,
(4.11)
We have already noted that electrical energy flowing across the boundary of a sys-
tem is work. We can gain further insight into such a process by considering a system in
which the only work mode is electrical. As examples of such a system, we can think of a
charged condenser, an electrolytic cell, and the type of fuel cell described in Chapter 1.
Consider a quasi-equnibrium process for such a system, and during this process let the
potential difference be % and the amount of electrical charge that flows into the system be
dZ. For this quasi-equilibrium process the work is given by the relation
W= -% dZ (4.12)
98 m CHAPTER FOUR WORK AND HEAT
Since the current, /, equals dZldt (where t — time), we can also write
BW= ~%idt (4.12)
X W 2 =- f%idt (4.13)
Equation 4. 1 3 may also be written as a rate equation for work (the power).

Since the ampere (electric current) is one of the fundamental units in the International
System, and the watt has been defined previously, this relation serves as the definition of
the unit for electric potential, the volt (V), which is one watt divided by one ampere.
4.5 CONCLUDING REMARKS REGARDING WORK
The similarity of the expressions for work in the three processes discussed in Section 4,4
and in the processes in which work is done at a moving boundary should be noted. In each
of these quasi-equilibrium processes, the work is given by the integral of the product of an
intensive property and the change of an extensive property. The following is a summary
list of these processes and their work expressions

Although we will deal primarily with systems in which there is only one mode of work,
it is quite possible to have more than one work mode in a given process. Thus, we could write
$W=PdV- % dL - VdA -%dZ+ - • (4.16)
where the dots represent other products of an intensive property and the derivative of a re-
lated extensive property. In each term the intensive property can be viewed as the driving
force that causes a change to occur in the related extensive property, which is often
termed the displacement. Just as we could derive the expression for power for the single
point force in Eq. 4.2, the rate form of Eq. 4. 1 6 expresses the power as

It should also be noted that many other forms of work can be identified in processes
that are not quasi-equilibrium processes. For example, there is the work done by shearing
forces in the friction in a viscous fluid or the work done by a rotating shaft that crosses the
system boundary.

The identification of work is an important aspect of many thermodynamic prob-
lems. We have already noted that work can be identified only at the boundaries of the sys-
tem. For example, consider Fig. 4.17, which shows a gas separated from the vacuum by a
membrane. Let the membrane rupture and the gas fill the entire volume. Neglecting any
work associated with the rupturing of the membrane, we can ask whether work is done in
the process. If we take as our system the gas and the vacuum space, we readily conclude
that no work is done because no work can be identified at the system boundary. If we take
the gas as a system, we do have a change of volume, and we might be tempted to calculate
the work from the integral
JW
However, this is not a quasi-equilibrium process, and therefore the work cannot be
calculated from this relation. Because there is no resistance at the system boundary as the
volume increases, we conclude that for this system no work is done in this process of fill-
ing the vacuum.
Another example can be cited with the aid of Fig. 4.18. In Fig. 4.18a the system
consists of the container plus the gas. Work crosses the boundary of the system at the
point where the system boundary intersects the shaft, and this work can be associated with
the shearing forces in the rotating shaft. In Fig. 4.1S& the system includes the shaft and
weight as well as the gas and the container. Therefore, no work crosses the system bound-
ary as the weight moves downward. As we will see in the next chapter, we can identify a
change of potential energy within the system, but this should not be confused with work
crossing the system boundary.

4,6 DEFINITION OF HEAT
The thermodynamic definition of heat is somewhat different from the everyday under-
standing of the word. It is essential to understand clearly the definition of heat given here,
because it plays a part in so many thermodynamic problems.
If a block of hot copper is placed in a beaker of cold water, we know from experi-
ence that the block of copper cools down and the water warms up until the copper and
water reach the same temperature. What causes this decrease in the temperature of the
copper and the increase in the temperature of the water? We say that it is the result of the
transfer of energy from the copper block to the water. It is out of such a transfer of energy
that we arrive at a definition of heat.
Heat is defined as the form of energy that is transferred across the boundary of a
ystem at a given temperature to another system (or the surroundings) at a lower tem-
perature by virtue of the temperature difference between the two systems. That is, heat
is transferred from the system at the higher temperature to the system at the lower tem-
perature, and the heat transfer occurs solely because of the temperature difference be-
tween the two systems. Another aspect of this definition of heat is that a body never
contains heat. Rather, heat can be identified only as it crosses the boundary. Thus, heat
is a transient phenomenon. If we consider the hot block of copper as one system and the
cold water in the beaker as another system, we recognize that originally neither system
contains any heat (they do contain energy, of course). When the copper block is placed
in the water and the two are in thermal communication, heat is transferred from the cop-
per to the water until equilibrium of temperature is established. At this point we no
longer have heat transfer, because there is no temperature difference. Neither system
contains heat at the conclusion of the process. It also follows that heat is identified at
the boundary of the system, for heat is defined as energy being transferred across the
system boundary.
Heat, like work, is a form of energy transfer to or from a system. Therefore, the
units for heat, and to be more general, for any other form of energy as well, are the same
as the units for work, or are at least directly proportional to them. In the International Sys-
tem the unit for heat (energy) is the joule. Similarly, in the English System, the footpound
force is an appropriate unit for heat. However, another unit came to be used naturally over
the years, the result of an association with the process of heating water, such as that used
in connection with defining heat in the previous section. Consider as a system 1 lbm of
water at 59.5 F. Let a block of hot copper of appropriate mass and temperature be placed
in the water so that when thermal equilibrium is established the temperature of the water
is 60.5 F. This unit amount of heat transferred from the copper to the water in this process
is called the British thermal unit (Btu). More specifically, it is called the 60-degree Btu,
defined as the amount of heat required to raise 1 lbm of water from 59.5 F to 60.5 F. (The
Btu as used today is actually defined in terms of the standard SI units.) It is worth noting
here that a unit of heat in metric units, the calorie, originated naturally in a manner similar
to the origin of the Btu in the English system. The cal orie i s defined as the amount of heat
required to raise 1 g of water from 14.5°C to 15.5°C. K^)
Heat transferred to a system is considered posnr
a system is negative. Thus, positive heat represents energy transferred to a system, and
negative heat represents energy transferred from a system. The symbol Q represents heat.
A process in which there is no heat transfer [Q ~ 0) is called an adiabatic process.
From a mathematical perspective, heat, like work, is a path function and is recog-
nized as an inexact differential. That is, the amount of heat transferred when a system un-
and heat transferred from
Heat Transfer Modes H 101
dergoes a change from state 1 to state 2 depends on the path that the system follows dur-
ing the change of state. Since heat is an inexact differential, the differential is written SQ,
On integrating, we write
In words, X Q 2 is the heat transferred during the given process between states 1 and 2.
The rate at which heat is transferred to a system is designated by symbol Q.
It is also convenient to speak of the heat transfer per unit mass of the system, q,
often termed specific heat transfer, which is defined as
4.7 Heat Transfer Modes
Heat transfer is the transport of energy due to a temperature difference between different
amounts of matter. We know that an ice cube taken out of the freezer will melt as it is
placed in a warmer environment such as a glass of liquid water or on a plate with room air
around it. From the discussion about energy in Section 2.6 we realize that molecules of
matter have translational (kinetic), rotational, and vibrational energy. Energy in these
modes can be transmitted to the nearby molecules by interactions (collisions) or by ex-
change of molecules such that energy is given out by molecules that have more in the av-
erage (higher temperature) to those that have less in the average (lower temperature). This
energy exchange between molecules is heat transfer by conduction, and it increases with
the temperature difference and the ability of the substance to make the transfer. This is ex-
pressed in Fourier's law of conduction
Q=~ M % (W) (4.18)
giving the rate of heat transfer as proportional to the conductivity, k, the total area, A, and
the temperature gradient. The minus sign gives a direction of the heat transfer from a
higher temperature to a lower temperature region. Often the gradient is evaluated as a
temperature difference divided by a distance when an estimate has to be done if a mathe-
matical or numerical solution is not available.
Values of the conductivity, k, range from the order of 100 W/m K for metals, 1 to
10 for nonmetallic solids as glass, ice and rock, from 0.1 to 10 for liquids, around 0.1 for
insulation materials, and from 0.1 down to less than 0.01 for gases.
A different mode of heat transfer takes place when a medium is flowing, called
convective heat transfer. In this mode the bulk motion of a substance moves matter with
a certain energy level over or near a surface with a different temperature. Now the heat
transfer by conduction is dominated by the manner in which the bulk motion brings the
two substances in contact or close proximity. Examples of this are the wind blowing
102 B CHAPTER FOUR. WORK AND HEAT
over a building or flow through heat exchangers, which can be air flowing over/through
a radiator with water flowing inside the radiator piping. The overall heat transfer is typ-
ically correlated with Newton's law of cooling as
where the transfer properties are lumped into the heat transfer coefficient, h, which then
becomes a function of the media properties, the flow and geometry. A more detailed study
of fluid mechanics and heat transfer aspects of the overall process is necessary to evaluate
the heat transfer coefficient for a given situation.
Typical values for the convection coefficient (all in W/mK 2 ) are
Natural convection h = 5-25, gas h = 50-1000, liquid
Forced convection h = 25-250, gas h = 50-20 000, liquid
Boiling phase change A = 2500-1 00 000
The final mode of heat transfer is radiation, which transmits energy as electromag-
netic waves in space. The transfer can happen in empty space and does not require any
matter, but the emission (generation) of the radiation and the absorption does require a
substance to be present. Surface emission is usually written as a fraction, emissivity s, of
a perfect black body emission as
with the surface temperature, T„ and the Stefan-Boltzmann constant, or. Typical values of
the emissivity range from 0.92 for nonmetallic surfaces to 0.6 to 0.9 for nonpolished
metallic surfaces, to less than 0.1 for highly polished metal surfaces. Radiation is distri-
buted over a range of wavelengths and it is emitted and absorbed differently for different
surfaces, but such a description is beyond the scope of the present text.
EXAMPLE 4.7 Consider the constant transfer of energy from a warm room at 20°C inside a house to
the colder ambient at ™10°C through a single-pane window as shown in Fig. 4.19.
The temperature variation with distance from the outside glass surface is shown with
an outside convection heat transfer layer, b\it no such layer is inside the room (as a
simplification). The glass pane has a thickness of 5 mm (0.005 m) with a conductiv-
ity of 1.4 W/m K and a total surface area of 0.5 m 2 . The outside wind is blowing so
that the convective heat transfer coefficient is 100 W/m 2 K. With an outer glass sur-

face temperature of 12.1°C we would like to know the rate of heat transfer in the

m K
with a direction from the higher to the lower temperature, i.e., toward the outside.
4.8 COMPARISON OF HEAT AND WORK
At this point it is evident that there are many similarities between heat and work.
1. Heat and work are both transient phenomena. Systems never possess heat or work,
but either or both cross the system boundary when a system undergoes a change of
state.
2. Both heat and work are boundary phenomena. Both are observed only at the bound-
aries of the system, and both represent energy crossing the boundary of the system.
3. Both heat and work are path functions and inexact differentials.
It should also be noted that in our sign convention, +Q represents heat transferred
to the system and thus is energy added to the system, and + W represents work done by
the system and thus represents energy leaving the system.
A final illustration may help explain the difference between heat and work. Figure
4.20 shows a gas contained in a rigid vessel. Resistance coils are wound around the out-
side of the vessel. When current flows through the resistance coils, the temperature of the
gas increases. Which crosses the boundary of the system, heat or work?
In Fig. 4.20a we consider only the gas as the system. The energy crosses the bound-
ary of the system because the temperature of the walls is higher than the temperature of
the gas. Therefore, we recognize that heat crosses the boundary of the system.

effects of heat addition to
a control volume that also
can give out work.
In Fig. 4.206 the system includes the vessel and the resistance heater. Electricity
crosses the boundary of the system and, as indicated earlier, this is work.
Consider a gas in a cylinder fitted with a movable piston, as shown in Fig. 4.21.
There is a positive heat transfer to the gas, which tends to make the temperature increase.
It also tends to increase the gas pressure. However, the pressure is dictated by the external
force acting on its movable boundary, as discussed in Section 2.8. If this remains con-
stant, then the volume increases instead. There are also the opposite tendencies for a nega-
tive heat transfer, that is, one out of the gas. Consider again the positive heat transfer,
except that in this case the external force simultaneously decreases. This causes the gas
pressure to decrease, such that the temperature tends to go down. In this case, there are si-
multaneous tendencies for temperature change in the opposite direction, which effectively
decouples directions of heat transfer and temperature change.
Often when we want to evaluate a finite amount of energy transferred as either work
or heat we must integrate the instantaneous rate over time.
In order to perform the integration we must know how the rate varies with time. For time
periods where the rate does not change significantly, a simple average may be of suffi-
cient accuracy to allow us to write
which is similar to the information given on your electric utility bill as kilowatt-hours.
Work and heat are energy transfers between a control volume and its surroundings.
Work is energy that can be transferred mechanically (or electrically, or chemically) from
one system to another and must cross the control surface either as a transient phenome-
non or as a steady rate of work, which is power , Work is a function of the process path as
well as the beginning state and end state. The displacement work is equal to the area
below the process curve drawn in a P-V diagram if we have an equilibrium process. A
number of ordinary processes can be expressed as polytropic processes having a particu-
lar simple mathematical form for the P-V relation. Work involved by the action of sur-
face tension, single-point forces, or electrical systems should be recognized and treated
separately. Any nonequilibrium processes (say, dynamic forces, which are important due
to accelerations) should be identified so that only equilibrium force or pressure is used to
evaluate the work term.
Heat transfer is energy transferred due to a temperature difference, and the conduc-
tion, convection, andradiation modes are discussed.

4.146 A piston/cylinder arrangement of initial volume
0.025 m 3 contains saturated water vapor at 200°C.
The steam now expands in a quasi-equilibrium
isothermal process to a final pressure of 200 kPa
while it does work against the piston. Determine
the work done in this process by a numerical inte-
gration (summation) of the area below the P-V
process curve. Compute about 10 points along the
curve by using the computerized software to get
the volume at 200°C and the various pressures.
How different is the work calculated if ideal gas
is assumed?

by an external force acting on the piston. The am-
monia is initially at 30°C, 500 kPa, and the final

THE FIRST LAW OF
THERMODYNAMICS
Having completed our consideration of basic definitions and concepts, we are ready to
proceed to a discussion of the first law of thermodynamics. This law is often called the
conservation of energy law and, as we will see later, this is essentially true. Our proce-
dure will be to state this law for a system (control mass) undergoing a cycle and then for
a change of state of a system.
After the energy equation is formulated we will use it to relate change of state
inside a control volume to the amount of energy that is transferred in a process as
work or heat transfer k When a car engine has transferred some work to the car, the
car's speed is increased, so we can relate the kinetic energy increase to the work, or if
a stove provides a certain amount of heat transfer to a pot with water we can relate the
water temperature increase to the heat transfer. More complicated processes can also
occur, such as the expansion of very hot gases in a piston cylinder, as in a car engine,
in which work is given out and at the same time heat is transferred to the colder walls.
In other applications we can also see a change in the state without any work or heat
transfer, such as a falling object that changes kinetic energy at the same time it is
changing elevation. The energy equation then relates the two forms of energy of the
object.
5.1 The First law of thermodynamics for
a Control Mass Undergoing a cycle
The first law of thermodynamics states that during any cycle a system (control mass)
undergoes, the cyclic integral of the heat is proportional to the cyclic integral of the
work.
To illustrate this law, consider as a control mass the gas in the container shown in
Fig. 5.1. Let this system go through a cycle that is made up of two processes. In the first
process work is done on the system by the paddle that turns as the weight is lowered. Let
the system then return to its initial state by transferring heat from the system until the
cycle has been completed.
Historically, work was measured in mechanical units of force times distance, such
as foot pounds force or joules, and heat was measured in thermal units, such as the British
thermal unit or the calorie. Measurements of work and heat were made during a cycle for
a wide variety of systems and for various amounts of work and heat. When the amounts
of work and heat were compared, it was found that they were always proportional. Such

observations led to the formulation of the first law of thermodynamics, which in equation
form is written
jj>8Q = j>5W (5.1)
The symbol $ SQ, which is called the cyclic integral of the heat transfer, represents the net
heat transfer during the cycle, and $ SW, the cyclic integral of the work, represents the net
work during the cycle. Here, J is a proportionality factor that depends on the units used
for work and heat.
The basis of every law of nature is experimental evidence, and this is true also of
the first law of thermodynamics. Many different experiments have been conducted on the
first law, and every one thus far has verified it either directly or indirectly. The first law
has never been disproved.
As was discussed in Chapter 4, the units for work and heat or for any other form of
energy either are the same or are directly proportional. In SI units, the joule is used as the
unit for both work and heat and for any other energy unit. In English units, the basic unit
for work is the foot pound force, and the basic unit for heat is the British thermal unit
(Btu). James P. Joule (1818-1889) did the first accurate work in the 1840s on measure-
ment of the proportionality factor J, which relates these units. Today, the Btu is defined in
terms of the basic SI metric units,
1 Btu = 778.17 ft lbf
This unit is termed the International British thermal unit. For much engineering work, the
accuracy of other data does not warrant more accuracy than the relation 1 Btu = 778 ft
lbf, which is the value used with English units in the problems in this text. Because these
units are equivalent, it is not necessary to include the factor J explicitly in Eq. 5.1, but
simply to recognize that for any system of units, each equation must have consistent units
throughout. Therefore, we may write Eq. 5.1 as
j>8Q = j>SW (5.2)
which can be considered the basic statement of the first law of thermodynamics.
5.2 THE FIRST law of thermodynamics for
a Change in state of a Control mass
Equation 5.2 states the first law of thermodynamics for a control mass during a cycle.
Many times, however, we are concerned with a process rather than a cycle. AVe now con-
sider the first law of thermodynamics for a control mass that undergoes a change of state.
118 M Chapter Five The First Law of Thermodynamics
THmwNET
We begin by introducing a new property, the energy, which is given the symbol E. Con-
sider a system that undergoes a cycle in which it changes from state 1 to state 2 by process
A and returns from state 2 to state 1 by process B. This cycle is shown in Fig. 5,2 on a
pressure (or other intensive property)-volume (or other extensive property) diagram.
From the first law of thermodynamics, Eq. 5.2, we have
j> 8Q = j> SW
Considering the two separate processes, we have
j* + f 2 SQb = | 2 sw A + f SW B
Now consider another cycle in which the control mass changes from state 1 to state 2 by
process C and returns to state 1 by process 5, as before. For this cycle we can write
/* SQ C + £ SQs = j 2 8W c + j 1 8W B
Subtracting the second of these equations from the first, we obtain
5W r
or, by rearranging,
j\8Q-8W) A = \\dQ-8W) c
(5.3)
Since A and C represent arbitrary processes between states 1 and 2, the quantity 8Q — 8 W
is the same for all processes between states 1 and 2. Therefore, 8Q - SW depends only on
the initial and final states and not on the path followed between the two states. We con-
clude that this is a point function, and therefore it is the differential of a property of the
mass. This property is the energy of the mass and is given the symbol E. Thus we can write
dE = 8Q- 8W
(5.4)
Because E is a property, its derivative is written dE. When Eq. 5.4 is integrated from an
initial state 1 to a final state 2, we have
^-^ = 102-102 (5-5)
where E v and£ 2 are the initial and final values of the energy E of the control mass, x Qi is
the heat transferred to the control mass during the process from state 1 to state 2, and Y W 2
is the work done by the control mass during the process.

m 119
Note that a control mass may be made up of several different subsystems, as shown
in Fig. 5.3, In this case, each part must be analyzed and included separately in applying
the first law, Eq. 5.5. We further note that Eq. 5,5 is an expression of the general form
A Energy = 4- in — out
in terms of the standard sign conventions for heat and work.
The physical significance of the property E is that it represents all the energy of the
system in the given state. This energy might be present in a variety of forms, such as the
kinetic or potential energy of the system as a whole with respect to the chosen coordinate
frame, energy associated with the motion and position of the molecules, energy associated
with the structure of the atom, chemical energy present in a storage battery, energy pre-
sent in a charged condenser, or any of a number of other forms.
In the study of thermodynamics, it is convenient to consider the bulk kinetic and po-
tential energy separately and then to consider all the other energy of the control mass in a
single property that we call the internal energy and to which we give the symbol U. Thus,
we would write
E = Internal energy + kinetic energy + potential energy
or
E = U + KE + PE
The kinetic and potential energy of the control mass are associated with the coordi-
nate frame that we select and can be specified by the macroscopic parameters of mass, ve-
locity, and elevation. The internal energy U includes all other forms of energy of the
control mass and is associated with the thermodynamic state of the system.
Since the terms comprising E are point functions, we can write
dE = dU + 4KE) + rf(PE) (5.6)
The first law of thermodynamics for a change of state may therefore be written
dE=dU + rf(KE) + rf(PE) = 80 - 5 IF (5.7)
In words this equation states that as a control mass undergoes a change of state, en-
ergy may cross the boundary as either heat or work, and each may be positive or negative.
The net change in the energy of the system will be exactly equal to the net energy that
120 K Chapter five the first law of thermodynamics
crosses the boundary of the system. The energy of the system may change in any of three
ways— by a change in internal energy, in kinetic energy, or in potential energy.
This section concludes by deriving an expression for the kinetic and potential en-
ergy of a control mass. Consider a mass that is initially at rest relative to the earth, which
is taken as the coordinate frame. Let this system be acted on by an external horizontal
force F that moves the mass a distance dx in the direction of the force. Thus, there is no
change in potential energy. Let there be no heat transfer and no change in internal energy.
Then from the first law, Eq, 5.7, we have
8W= -Fdx = ~dKE
But
„ dV dxdV w^V
F — ma = m — r- = m —r — r~ = mv -7-
dt dt dx dx
Then
dKE = Fdx = mV dV
Integrating, we obtain
c KE f v
^KE = mVdV
Jke=o Jv=o
KE = ^mV 2 (5.8)
A similar expression for potential energy can be found. Consider a control mass that
is initially at rest and at the elevation of some reference level. Let this mass be acted on by
a vertical force F of such magnitude that it raises (in elevation) the mass with constant ve-
locity an amount dZ. Let the acceleration due to gravity at this point be g. From the first
law, Eq. 5.7, we have
SW = -FdZ= ~d~PE
F — ma = mg
Then
Integrating gives
dm =FdZ= mgdZ
rpE 2 rz,
dPE = m gdZ
J PE, ■> Z,
Assuming that g does not vary with-Z (which is a very reasonable assumption for moder-
ate changes in elevation), we obtain
PE 2 - PEi = mgfo - Z,) (5.9)
EXAMPLE 5.1 A car of mass 1 1 00 kg drives with a velocity such that it has a kinetic energy of 400 kJ (see
Fig. 5.4). Find the velocity. If the car is raised with a crane how high should it be lifted in

Now, substituting the expressions for kinetic and potential energy into Eq. 5.6, we have
dE = dU + mV dV + mg dZ
Integrating for a change of state from state 1 to state 2 with constant g, we get
E 2 - E x = U 2 - U x + ^ - ^ + mgTa ~ mgZ x
Similarly, substituting these expressions for kinetic and potential energy into Eq.
5.7, we have
dE = dU + + d(mgZ) = SQ-8W (5.10)
Assuming g is a constant, in the integrated form of this equation,
U 2 - U x + m{y2 \ V ' j + mg(Z 2 - Z x ) = X Q 2 - X W 2 (5.11)
Three observations should be made regarding this equation. The first observation is
that the property E, the energy of the control mass, was found to exist, and we were able
to write the first law for a change of state using Eq, 5.5. However, rather than deal with
this property E, we find it more convenient to consider the internal energy and the kinetic
and potential energies of the mass. In general, this procedure will be followed in the rest
of this book.
The second observation is that Eqs. 5.10 and 5.11 are in effect a statement of the
conservation of energy. The net change of the energy of the control mass is always equal
to the net transfer of energy across the boundary as heat and work. This is somewhat anal-
ogous to a joint checking account shared by a husband and wife. There are two ways in
which deposits and withdrawals can be made— either by the husband or by the wife — and
the balance will always reflect the net amount of the transaction. Similarly, there are two
ways in which energy can cross the boundary of a control mass — either as heat or as
work — and the energy of the mass will change by the exact amount of the net energy
crossing the boundary. The concept of energy and the law of the conservation of energy
are basic to thermodynamics.
The First law of thermodynamics for a Change in State of a Control mass
m 123
The third observation is that Eqs. 5.10 and 5.11 can give only changes in internal
energy, kinetic energy, and potential energy. We can leam nothing about absolute values
of these quantities from these equations. If we wish to assign values to internal energy, ki-
netic energy, and potential energy, we must assume reference states and assign a value to
the quantity in this reference state. The kinetic energy of a body with zero velocity rela-
tive to the earth is assumed to be zero. Similarly, the value of the potential energy is as-
sumed to be zero when the body is at some reference elevation. With internal energy,
therefore, we must also have a reference state if we wish to assign values of this property.
This matter is considered in the following section.
EXAMPLE 5,2 A tank containing a fluid is stirred by a paddle wheel. The work input to the paddle
wheel is 5090 kJ. The heat transfer from the tank is 1500 kJ. Consider the tank and the
fluid inside a control surface and determine the change in internal energy of this control
mass.
The first law of thermodynamics is (Eq. 5.11)
U 2 -U,+^ m(V 2 2 - V?) + mgiZj - Z,) = ,g 2 " 1^2
Since there is no change in kinetic and potential energy, this reduces to
U 2 -U t =* -1500 - (-5090) - 3590 kJ
Consider a stone having a mass of 10 kg and a bucket containing 100 kg of liquid water.
Initially the stone is 10.2 m above the water, and the stone and the water are at the same
temperature, state 1. The stone then falls into the water.
Determine A 17, AKE, APE, Q, and fFfor the following changes of state, assuming
standard gravitational acceleration of 9.806 65 m/s 2 .
a. The stone is about to enter the water, state 2.
b. The stone has just come to rest in the bucket, state 3.
c. Heat has been transferred to the surroundings in such an amount that the stone and
water are at the same temperature, 7*!, state 4.
Analysis and Solution
The first law for any of the steps is
Q = AC/+ AKE + APE + W
and each term can be identified for each of the changes of state.
a. The stone has fallen from Z x to 2^, and we assume no heat transfer as it falls. The
water has not changed state; thus

c. In the final state, there is no kinetic, nor potential energy, and the internal energy is

5,3 INTERNAL ENERGY — A THERMODYNAMIC
PROPERTY
Internal energy is an extensive property because it depends on the mass of the system.
Similarly, kinetic and potential energies are extensive properties.
The symbol U designates the internal energy of a given mass of a substance. Fol-
lowing the convention used with other extensive properties, the symbol u designates the
internal energy per unit mass. We could speak of it as the specific internal energy, as we
do with specific volume. However, because the context will usually make it clear whether
u or U is referred to, we will simply use the term internal energy to refer to both internal
energy per unit mass and the total internal energy.
In Chapter 3 we noted that in the absence of motion, gravity, surface effects, elec-
tricity, or other effects, the state of a pure substance is specified by two independent prop-
erties. It is very significant that, with these restrictions, the internal energy may be one of
the independent properties of a pure substance. This means, for example, that if we spec-
ify the pressure and internal energy (with reference to an arbitrary base) of superheated
steam, the temperature is also specified.
Thus, in a table of thermodynamic properties such as the steam tables, the' value of
internal energy can be tabulated along with other thermodynamic properties. Tables 1
and 2 of the steam tables (Tables B.l.l and B.1.2) list the internal energy for saturated
AE/-= -lkJ,
AKE = 0, APE = 0,
3 Q A = AU= -lkJ
Internal Energy— A thermodynamic Property H 125
states. Included are the internal energy of saturated liquid u fi the internal energy of satu-
rated vapor u g , and the difference between the internal energy of saturated liquid and sat-
urated vapor Uf r The values are given in relation to an arbitrarily assumed reference
state, which, for water in the steam tables, is taken as zero for saturated liquid at the
triple-point temperature, 0.0 TC. All values of internal energy in the steam tables are
then calculated relative to this reference (note that the reference state cancels out when
finding a difference in u between any two states). Values for internal energy are found in
the steam tables in the same manner as for specific volume. In the liquid-vapor satura-
tion region,
or
mu = m liq ti f + m^u s
Dividing by m and introducing the quality x gives
u = (1 — x)itf+ xu g
u=u f +xu fg
As an example, the specific internal energy of saturated seam having a pressure of
0.6 MPa and a quality of 95% can be calculated as
= u f + xu fg = 669.9 + 0.95(1897.5) = 2472.5 kJ/kg
Values for u in the superheated vapor region are tabulated in Table B.1.3, for compressed
liquid in Table B.1.4, and for solid-vapor in Table B. 1.5.
EXAMPLE 5.4 Determine the missing property (P, T or x) and also v for water at each of the following
states:
a. r= 300°C J i/ = 2780kJ/kg
b. P = 2000 kPa, it = 2000 kJ/kg
For each case, the two properties given are independent properties and therefore fix the
state. For each, we must first determine the phase by comparison of the given informa-
tion with phase boundary values.
a. At 300°C 3 from Table B.l.l, u g = 2563.0 kJ/kg. The given u > u g> so the state is in
the superheated vapor region at some P less than P gi which is 8581 kPa. Searching
through Table B.1.3 at 300°C, we find that the value u = 2780 is between given
values of u at 1600 kPa (2781.0) and 1800 kPa (2776.8). Interpolating linearly, we
obtain
P= 1648kPa.
Note that quality is undefined in the superheated vapor region. At this pressure, by
linear interpolation, we have v = 0.1542 mVkg.
126 H Chapter Five The First Law of Thermodynamics
b. At P = 2000 kPa, from Table B.1.2, the given u of 2000 kJ/kg is greater than a f
(906.4) but less than u g (2600,3). Therefore, this state is in the two-phase region with
T=T g = 212.4°C, and
u = 2000 = 906.4 + xl693.8, x = 0.6456
Then,
v = 0.001 177 + 0.6456 X 0.098 45 = 0.064 74 m 3 /kg. .
5 A PROBLEM ANALYSIS AND
SOLUTION TECHNIQUE
At this point in our study of thermodynamics, we have progressed sufficiently far (that is,
we have accumulated sufficient tools with which to work) that it is worthwhile to develop
a somewhat formal technique or procedure for analyzing and solving thermodynamic
problems. For the time being it may not seem entirely necessary to use such a rigorous
procedure for many of our problems, but we should keep in mind that as we acquire more
analytical tools the problems that we are capable of dealing with will become much more
complicated. Thus, it is appropriate that we begin to practice this technique now in antici-
pation of these future problems.
Our problem analysts and solution technique is contained within the framework of
the following set of questions that must be answered in the process of an orderly solution
of a thermodynamic problem.
1. What is the control mass or control volume? Is it useful, or necessary, to choose
more than one? It may be helpful to draw a sketch of the system at this point, illus-
trating all heat and work flows, and indicating forces such as external pressures and
gravitation.
2. What do we know about the initial state (i.e., which properties are known)?
3. What do we know about the final state?
4. What do we know about the process that takes place? Is anything constant or zero?
Is there some known functional relation between two properties?
5. Is it helpful to draw a diagram of the information in steps 2 to 4 (for example, a T-v
or P-u diagram)?
6. What is our thermodynamic model for the behavior of the substance (for example,
steam tables, ideal gas, and so' on)?
7. What is our analysis of the problem (i.e., do we examine control surfaces for vari-
ous work modes or use the first law or conservation of mass)?
8. What is our solution technique? In other words, from what we have done so far in
steps 1-7, how do we proceed to find whatever it is that is desired? Is a trial-and-
error solution necessary?
It is not always necessary to write out all these steps, and in the majority of the examples
throughout this text we will not do so. However, when faced with a new and unfamiliar
problem Analysis and solution technique 9 127
problem, the student should always at least think through this set of questions to develop
the ability to solve more challengingproblems. In solving the following example, we will
use this technique in detail.
EXAMPLE 5.5 A vessel having a volume of 5 m 3 contains 0.05 m 3 of saturated liquid water and 4.95 m 3
of saturated water vapor at 0. 1 MPa. Heat is transferred until the vessel is filled with sat-
urated vapor. Determine the heat transfer for this process.
Control mass: All the water inside the vessel.
Sketch: Fig. 5.5.
Initial state: Pressure, volume of liquid, volume of vapor; therefore, state 1 is fixed. :
Final state: Somewhere along the saturated- vapor curve; the water was heated,
so l\ > Pi.
Process: Constant volume and mass; therefore, constant specific volume.
Diagram: Fig. 5.6,
Model: Steam tables.
Analysis
From the first law we have
iQz=U 2 -U l + m-
V?- V?
From examining the control surface for various work modes, we conclude that the work
for this process is zero. Furthermore, the system is not moving, so there is no change in
kinetic energy. There is a small change in the center of mass of the system but we will
assume that the corresponding change in potential energy is negligible (in kilojoules).
Therefore,
iQi =U 2 -U l
Solution
The heat transfer will be found from the first law. State 1 is known, so U x can be calcu-
lated. The specific volume at state 2 is also known (from state 1 and the process). Since

state 2 is saturated vapor, state 2 is fixed, as is seen from Fig. 5.6. Therefore, U 2 can also
be found.

the final state. The properties we know are the quality, x = 100%, and v 2i the final spe-
cific volume, which can readily be determined.

From examining the control surface for various work modes, we conclude that the work
for this process is zero. Furthermore, the system is not moving, so there is no change in
kinetic energy. There is a small change in center of mass of the system, but we will as-
sume that the corresponding change in potential energy is negligible (compared to other
terms). Therefore,
X Q 2 =U 2 ~U X
Solution
The heat transfer will be found from the first law. State 1 is known, so U x can be calcu-
lated. Also, the specific volume at state 2 is known (from state 1 and the process). Since
state 2 is saturated vapor, state 2 is fixed, as is seen from Fig. 5.6. Therefore, U 2 can also
be found.

5.5 the thermodynamic
Property Enthalpy
In analyzing specific types of processes, we frequently encounter certain combinations of
thermodynamic properties, which are therefore also properties of the substance undergo-
ing the change of state. To demonstrate one such situation, let us consider a control mass
undergoing a quasi-equilibrium constant-pressure process, as shown in Fig. 5,7. Assume
that there are no changes in kinetic or potential energy and that the only work done during
the process is that associated with the boundary movement. Taking the gas as our control
mass and applying the first law, Eq. 5.11, we have, in terms of Q,
xQx=V 2 -V x + l W 2
The work done can be calculated from the relation
,W 2
-j:
PdV
Since the pressure is constant,
= P j 2 dV^P(V 2 - V x )
Therefore,
iQ 2 =U 2 ~U l + P 2 V 2 -P l V l
= (u 2 + p 2 r 3 )-(v l +p l v l )
We find that, in this very restricted case, the heat transfer during the process is
given in terms of the change in the quantity U + PV between the initial and final states.
Because all these quantities are thermodynamic properties, that is, functions only of the
state of the system, their combination must also have these same characteristics. There-
fore, we find it convenient to define a new extensive property, the enthalpy,
H^U + PV (5.12)
The thermodynamic Property enthalpy fl 131
or, per unit mass,
h = u + p v (5.13)
As for internal energy, we could speak of specific enthalpy, h, and total enthalpy, H.
However, we will refer to both as enthalpy, since the context will make it clear which is
being discussed.
The heat transfer in a constant-pressure quasi-equilibrium process is equal to the
change in enthalpy, which includes both the change in internal energy and the work for
this particular process. This is by no means a general result. It is valid for this special case
only because the work done during the process is equal to the difference m the PV product
for the final and initial states. This would not be true if the pressure had not remained con-
stant during the process.
The significance and use of enthalpy is not restricted to the special process just de-
scribed. Other cases in which this same combination of properties u + Pv appear will be
developed later, notably in Chapter 6 in which we discuss control volume analyses. Our
reason for introducing enthalpy at this time is that although the tables in Appendix B list
values for internal energy, many other tables and charts of thermodynamic properties give
values for enthalpy but not for the internal energy. Therefore, it is necessary to calculate
the internal energy at a state using the tabulated values and Eq. 5.13:
u = h - Pv
Students often become confused about the validity of this calculation when analyz-
ing system processes that do not occur at constant pressure, for which enthalpy has no
physical significance. We must keep in mind that enthalpy, being a property, is a state or
point function, and its use in calculating internal energy at the same state is not related to,
or dependent on, any process that may be taking place.
Tabular values of internal energy and enthalpy, such as those included in Table's B.l
through B.7, are all relative to some arbitrarily selected base. In the steam tables, the in-
ternal energy of saturated liquid at 0.0 TC is the reference state and is given a value of
zero. For refrigerants, such as ammonia and chlorofmorocarbons R-12 and R-22, the ref-
erence state is arbitrarily taken as saturated liquid at — 40°C. The enthalpy in this refer-
ence state is assigned the value of zero. Cryogenic fluids, such as nitrogen, have other
arbitrary reference states chosen for enthalpy values listed in their tables. Because each of
these reference states is arbitrarily selected, it is always possible to have negative values
for enthalpy, as for saturated-solid water in Table B.1.5. When enthalpy and internal en-
ergy are given values relative to the same reference state, as they are in essentially all
thermodynamic tables, the difference between internal energy and enthalpy at the refer-
ence state is equal to Pv. Since the specific volume of the liquid is very small, this product
is negligible as far as the significant figures of the tables are concerned, but the principle
should be kept in mind, for in certain cases it is significant.
In many thermodynamic tables, values of the specific internal energy w are not given.
As mentioned earlier, these values can be readily calculated from the relation u = h — Pv,
though it is important to keep the units in mind. As an example, let us calculate the internal
energy u of superheated R-134a at 0.4 MPa, 70°C.
u = h-Pv
= 460.545 - 400 X 0.066 484
= 433.951 kJ/kg
132 H CHAPTER FIVE the first law of thermodynamics
The enthalpy of a substance in a saturation state and with a given quality is found
in the same way as the specific volume and internal energy. The enthalpy of saturated
liquid has the symbol hp saturated vapor h g , and the increase in enthalpy during vapor-
ization hf g . For a saturation state, the enthalpy can be calculated by one of the following
relations:
The enthalpy of compressed liquid water may be found from Table B.1.4. For sub-
stances for which compressed-liquid tables are not available, the enthalpy is taken as that
of saturated liquid at the same temperature.
EXAMPLE 5.6 A cylinder fitted with a piston has a volume of 0.1 m 3 and contains 0,5 kg of steam at 0.4
MPa. Heat is transferred to the steam until the temperature is 300°C, while the pressure
remains constant.
Determine the heat transfer and the work for this process.
Control mass: Water inside cylinder.

There is no change in kinetic energy or change in potential energy. Work is done by

There is a choice of procedures to follow. State 1 is known, so v x and h x (or ui) can be
found. State 2 is also known, so v 2 and h 2 (or n 2 ) can be found. Using the first law and
the work equation, we can calculate the heat transfer and work. Using the enthalpies, we

5.6 The Constant-Volume and
Constant-Pressure Specific Heats
In this section we will consider a homogeneous phase of a substance of constant composi-
tion. This phase may be a solid, a liquid, or a gas, but no change of phase will occur. We
will then define a variable termed the specific heat, the amount of heat required per unit
mass to raise the temperature by one degree. Since it would be of interest to examine the
relation between the specific heat and other thermodynamic variables, we note first that
134 H Chapter Five The First Law of Thermodynamics
the heat transfer is given by Eq. 5.10. Neglecting changes in kinetic and potential ener-
gies, and assuming a simple compressible substance and quasi-equilibrium process, for
which the work in Eq. 5. 10 is given by Eq. 4.2, we have
8Q = dU + 6W=dU + PdV
We find that this expression can be evaluated for two separate special cases.
(^Constant volume, for which the work term (P dV) is zero, so that the specific heat
(at constant volume) is
c » = k (S\ = ^ (jt) v = (5,14)
( 2. Constant pressure, for which the work term can be integrated and the resulting PV
^-^terms at the initial and final states can be associated with the internal energy terms,
as in Section 5.5, thereby leading to the conclusion that the heat transfer can be ex-
pressed tn terms of the enthalpy change. The corresponding specific heat (at con-
stant pressure) is
C =1(^1 = (&) (5 15)
^ ™\8Tj p ™{dT) p \dTj p P ' 1DJ
Note that in each of these special cases, the resulting expression, Eq. 5.14 or 5.15,
contains only thermodynamic properties, from which we conclude that the constant-
volume and constant-pressure specific heats must themselves be thermodynamic proper-
ties. This means that, although we began this discussion by considering the amount of
heat transfer required to cause a unit temperature change and then proceeded through a
very specific development leading to Eq. 5.14 (or 5.15), the result ultimately expresses a
relation among a set of thermodynamic properties and therefore constitutes a definition
that is independent of the particular process leading to it (in the same sense that the defini-
tion of enthalpy in the previous section is independent of the process used to illustrate one
situation in which the property is useful in a thermodynamic analysis). As an example,
consider the two identical fluid masses shown in Fig. 5.9. In the first system 100 kJ of
heat is transferred to it, and in the second system 100 kj of work is done on it. Thus, the
change of internal energy is the same for each, and therefore the final state and the final
temperature are the same in each. In accordance with Eq. 5.14, therefore, exactly the same
value for the average constant-volume specific heat would be found for this substance for
the two processes, even though the two processes are very different as far as heat transfer
is concerned.

Solids and Liquids
' As a special case, consider either a solid or a liquid. Since both of these phases are nearly
incompressible,
dh = du + d{Pv) ~du + v dP (5.16)
Also, for both of these phases, the specific volume is very small, such that in many cases
dh^du^CdT (5.17)
where C is either the constant- volume or the constant-pressure specific heat, as the two
would be nearly the same. In many processes involving a solid or a liquid, we might
further assume that the specific heat in Eq. 5.17 is constant (unless the process occurs
at low temperature or over a wide range of temperatures). Equation 5.17 can then be
integrated to
h 2 - A, - u 2 - h, - C(T 7 - TO (5.18)
Specific heats for various solids and liquids are listed in Tables A.3 and A.4.
In other processes for which it is not possible to assume constant specific heat, there
may be a known relation for C as a function of temperature. Equation 5.17 could then also
be integrated.
5.7 the internal energy, enthalpy,
and Specific Heat of Ideal gases
In general, for any substance the internal energy u depends on the two independent prop-
erties specifying the state. For a low-density gas, however, a depends primarily on T and
much less on the second property, P or v. For example, consider several values for super-
heated vapor steam from Table B.1.3, shown in Table 5.1. From these values, it is evident
that u depends strongly on T, but not much on P. Also, we note that the dependence of u
on P is less at low pressure and is much less at high temperature; that is, as the density de-
creases, so does dependence of u on P (or v). It is therefore reasonable to extrapolate this
behavior to very low density and to assume that as gas density becomes so low that the
ideal-gas model is appropriate, internal energy does not depend on pressure at all but is a
function only of temperature. That is, for an ideal gas,
Pv=RT and u =f{T) only (5.19)

The relation between the internal energy u and the temperature can be established
by using the definition of constant- volume specific heat given by Eq. 5,14:
C = (^i
Because the internal energy of an ideal gas is not a function of specific volume, for an
ideal gas we can write
r = ^"
C " dT
du = C e0 dT (5.20)
where the subscript denotes the specific heat of an ideal gas. For a given mass m,
dU=mC v0 dT (5.21)
From the definition of enthalpy and the equation of state of an ideal gas, it follows
that
h = u + Pv = u + RT (5.22)
Since R is a constant and u is a function of temperature only, it follows that the en-
thalpy, h } of an ideal gas is also a function of temperature only. That is,
h -AT) (5.23)
The relation between enthalpy and temperature is found from the constant-pressure spe-
cific heat as defined by Eq. 5.15:
Since the enthalpy of an ideal gas is a function of the temperature only and is independent
of the pressure, it follows that
r =4L
dT
dh = C^dT (5.24)
For a given mass m,
dH = mC pa dT (5.25)
The consequences ofEqs. 5.20 and 5.24 are demonstrated in Fig. 5.10, which shows
two lines of constant temperature. Since internal energy and enthalpy are functions of
temperature only, these lines of constant temperature are also lines of constant internal en-
ergy and constant enthalpy. From state 1 the high temperature can be reached by a variety
of paths, and in each case the final state is different. However, regardless of the path, the
change in internal energy is the same, as is the change in enthalpy, for lines of constant
temperature are also lines of constant u and constant h.
Because the internal energy and enthalpy of an ideal gas are functions of tempera-
ture only, it also follows that the constant-volume and constant-pressure specific heats are
also functions of temperature only. That is,
C v0 =AT), C p0 =AT) (5.26)
The Internal Energy, Enthalpy, and Specific Heat of Ideal Gases H 137
Because all gases approach ideal-gas behavior as the pressure approaches zero, the ideal-
gas specific heat for a given substance is often called the zero-pressure specific heat, and
the zero-pressure, constant-pressure specific heat is given the symbol C fQ . The zero-pres-
sure, constant-volume specific heat is given the symbol C„ . Figure 5.11 shows as a
function of temperature for a number of different substances. These values are determined
by the techniques of statistical thermodynamics and will not be discussed here. A brief
summary presentation of this subject is given in Appendix C. It is noted there that the
principal factor causing specific heat to vary with temperature is molecular vibration.
More complex molecules have multiple vibrational modes and therefore show a greater
temperature dependency, as is seen in Fig. 5.1 1. This is an important consideration when
deciding whether or not to account for specific heat variation with temperature in any par-
ticular application.

138 H chapter Five the first law of thermodynamics
A very important relation between the constant-pressure and constant-volume spe-
cific heats of an ideal gas may be developed from the definition of enthalpy:
A = a + Pu ~ u + RT
Differentiating and substituting Eqs. 5.20 and 5.24, we have
dh = du + R dT
Cp dT = C vQ dT+RdT
Therefore,
C p0 ~C v0 = R (5.27)
On a mote basis this equation is written
Cpo ~C v0 = R (5.27)
This tells us that the difference between the constant-pressure and constant-volume spe-
cific heats of an ideal gas is always constant, though both are functions of temperature.
Thus, we need examine only the temperature dependency of one, and the other is given by
Eq. 5.27.
Let us consider the specific heat C^. There are three possibilities to examine. The
situation is simplest if we assume constant specific heat, that is, no temperature depen-
dence. Then it is possible to integrate Eq. 5.24 directly to
h ~ h x = C^(r 2 - TO (5.29)
We note from Fig. 5.11 the circumstances under which this will be an accurate
model. It should be added, however, that it may be a reasonable approximation under
other conditions, especially if an average specific heat in the particular temperature range
is used in Eq. 5.29. Values of specific heat at room temperature and gas constants for vari-
ous gases are given in Table A.5.
The second possibility for the specific heat is to use an analytical equation for as
a function of temperature. Because the results of specific-heat calculations from statistical
thermodynamics do not lend themselves to convenient mathematical forms, these results
have been approximated empirically. The equations for as a function of temperature
are listed in Table A.6 for a number of gases.
The third possibility is to integrate the results of the calculations of statistical ther-
modynamics from an arbitrary reference temperature to any other temperature T and to
define a function
This function can then be tabulated in a Tingle-entry (temperature) table. Then, between
any two states 1 and 2,
h 2 - ft, = \ Tl dT- P dT = h Ti - h 2
J T<> •>T,
(5.30)
and it is seen that the reference temperature cancels out. This function h T (and a similar
function i/ r = h T — RT) is listed for air in Table A. 7. These functions are listed for other
gases in Table A. 8.
The Internal Energy, Enthalpy, and Specihc Heat of Ideal Gases Ml 139
To summarize the three possibilities, we note that using the ideal-gas tables, Tables
A. 7 and A. 8, gives us the most accurate answer, but that the equations in Table A.6 would
give a close empirical approximation. Constant specific heat would be less accurate, ex-
cept for monatomic gases and gases below room temperature. It should be remembered
that all these results are a part of the ideal-gas model, which in many of our problems is
not a valid assumption for the behavior of the substance.
EXAMPLE 5.7 Calculate the change of enthalpy as 1 kg of oxygen is heated from 300 to 1500 K. As-
sume ideal-gas behavior.
Solution
For an ideal gas, the enthalpy change is given by Eq. 5.24. However, we also need to
make an assumption about the dependence of specific heat on temperature. Let us solve
this problem in several ways and compare the answers.
Our most accurate answer for the ideal-gas enthalpy change for oxygen between 300
and 1500 K would be from the ideal-gas tables, Table A.8. This result is, using Eq. 5.30,
h 2 -h } = 1540.2 - 273.2 = 1267.0 kJ/kg
The empirical equation from Table A.6 should give a good approximation to this
result. Integrating Eq. 5.24, we have
h 2 -h x = Oo dT = f 92 CJff) X 1000 dB
= 100 o lasso - M501 02 + 0|4 fl 3 _ 033 J'*""
L 2 3 4 Je,=o.3
= 1241.5 kJ/kg
which is lower than the first result by 2.0%.
If we assume constant specific heat, we must be concerned about what value
we are going to use. If we use the value at 300 K from Table A. 5, we find, from Eq.
5.29, that
h 2 ~h l = CpaiTz ~ T x ) = 0.922 X 1200 = 1106.4 kJ/kg
which is low by 12.7%. However, suppose we assume that the specific heat is constant
at its value at 900 K, the average temperature. Substituting 900 K into the equation for
specific heat from Table A.6, we have
= 0.88 - 0.0001(0.9) + 0'.54(0.9) 2 - 0.33(0.9) 3
= 1.0767 kJ/kgK
Substituting this value into Eq. 5.29 gives the result
h 2 -h x = 1.0767 X 1200 = 1292.1 kJ/kg
which is high by about 2.0%, a much closer result than the one using the room tempera-
ture specific heat. It should be kept in mind that part of the model involving ideal gas
with constant specific heat also involves a choice of what value is to be used.

the instantaneous or average rate at which energy crosses the control surface as heat and
work and the rate at which the energy of the control mass changes. In so doing we are de-
parting from a strictly classical point of view, because basically classical thermodynamics
deals with systems that are in equilibrium, and time is not a relevant parameter for sys-
tems that are in equilibrium. However, since these rate equations are developed from the
concepts of classical thermodynamics and are used in many applications of thermodynam-
ics, they are included in this book. This rate form of the first law will be used in the devel-
opment of the first law for the control volume in Section 6.2, and in this form the first law
finds extensive applications in thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer.
Consider a time interval St during which an amount of heat SQ crosses the control
surface, an amount of work S W is done by the control mass, the internal energy change is
A 17, the kinetic energy change is AKE, and the potential energy change is APE. From the
first law we can -write
AC/ + AKE + APE = SQ- 8W
Dividing by St we have the average rate of energy transfer as heat work and increase of
the energy of the control mass:

EXAMPLE 5.9 During the charging of a storage battery, the current i is 20 A and the voltage % is 12.8
V. The rate of heat transfer from the battery is 10 W. At what rate is the internal energy
increasing?
Solution
Since changes in kinetic and potential energy are insignificant, the first law can be writ-
ten as a rate equation in the form of Eq. 5.31:

wood and 1 kg of air. All the masses are at room temperature, 20°C, and pressure, 101
kPa. The wood now bums and heats all the mass uniformly, releasing 1500 watts. Ne-

5,9 CONSERVATION OF MASS
In the previous sections we considered the first law of thermodynamics for a control mass
undergoing a change of state. A control mass is defined as a fixed quantity of mass. The
question now is whether the mass of such a system changes when its energy changes. If it
does, our definition of a control mass as a fixed quantity of mass is no longer valid when
the energy changes.
We know from relativistic considerations that mass and energy are related by the
well-known equation
E = m<? (5.33)
where c = velocity of light and E = energy. We conclude from this equation that the
mass of a control mass does change when its energy changes. Let us calculate the magni-
tude of this change of mass for a typical problem and determine whether this change in
mass is significant.
Consider a rigid vessel that contains a 1-kg stoichiometric mixture of a hydrocarbon
fuel (such as gasoline) and air. From our knowledge of combustion, we know that after
combustion takes place it wilt be necessary to transfer about 2900 kj from the system to
restore it to its initial temperature. From the first law
ifi^Oi-t/i + i^
144 H Chapter Five The First Law of Thermodynamics
we conclude that since X W 2 = and X Q 2 = -2900 kJ, the internal energy of this system
decreases by 2900 kj during the heat transfer process. Let us now calculate the decrease
in mass during this process using Eq. 5.33.
The velocity of light, c, is 2.9979 X 10 8 m/s. Therefore,
2900 kJ = 2 900 000 J = m (kg) X (2.9979 X 10 8 m/s) 2
and so
m -3.23 X 10" u kg
Thus, when the energy of the control mass decreases by 2900 kJ, the decrease in mass is
3.23 X 10~ 15 kg.
A change in mass of this magnitude cannot be detected by even our most accurate
chemical balance. Certainly, a fractional change in mass of this magnitude is beyond the
accuracy required in essentially all engineering calculations. Therefore, if we use the laws
of conservation of mass and conservation of energy as separate laws, we will not intro-
duce significant error into most thermodynamic problems and our definition of a control
mass as having a fixed mass can be used even though the energy changes.
UMMARY Conservation of energy is expressed for a cycle, and changes of total energy are then writ-
ten for a control mass. Kinetic and potential energy can be changed through the work of a
force acting on the control mass, and they are part of the total energy.
The internal energy and the enthalpy are introduced as substance properties with the
specific heats (heat capacity) as derivatives of these with temperature. Property variations
for limited cases are presented for incompressible states of a substance such as liquids and
solids, and for a highly compressible state as an ideal gas. The specific heat for solids and
liquids changes little with temperature, whereas the specific heat for a gas can change
substantially with temperature.
The energy equation is also shown in a rate form to cover transient processes.

First-Law Analysis for
In the preceding chapter we developed the first-law analysis (energy balance) for a con-
trol mass going through a process. Many applications in thermodynamics do not readily
lend themselves to a control mass approach but are conveniently handled by the more
general control volume technique, as discussed in Chapter 2. The present chapter is con-
cerned with development of the control volume forms of the conservation of mass and
energy in situations where there are flows of substance present.
6.1 CONSERVATION OF MASS
AND THE CONTROL VOLUME
r\ control volume is a volume in space in which one has interest for a particular study or
Jnalysis. The surface of this control volume is referred to as a control surface and always
consists of a closed surface. The size and shape of the control volume are completely ar-
bitrary and are so denned as to best suit the analysis to be made. The surface may be
fixed, or it may move so that it expands or contracts. However, the surface must be de-
fined relative to some coordinate system. In some analyses it may be desirable to consider
a rotating or moving coordinate system and to describe the position of the control surface
relative to such a coordinate system.
T^llass as welt as heat and work can cross the control surface, and the mass in the
crJ^J volume, as well as the properties of this mass, can change with time. Figure 6.1
shows a schematic diagram of a control volume that includes heat transfer, shaft work,
moving boundary work, accumulation of mass within the control volume, and several
mass flows. It is important to identify and label each flow of mass and energy and the
parts of the control volume that can store (accumulate) mass.
Let us consider the conservation of mass law as it relates to the control volume.
The physical law concerning mass, recalling Section 5.9, says that we cannot create or
destroy mass. We will express this law in a mathematical statement about the mass in the
control volume. To do this we must consider all the mass flows into and out of the control
volume and the net increase of mass within the control volume. As a somewhat simpler
control volume we consider a tank with a cylinder and piston and two pipes attached as
shown in Fig. 6.2. The rate of change of mass inside the control volume can be different
from zero if we add or take a flow of mass out as
Rate of change - Hn - out

stating that if the mass inside the control volume changes with time it is because we add
some mass or take some mass out. There are no other means by which the mass inside the
control volume could change. Equation 6.1 expressing the conservation of mass is com-
monly termed the continuity equation. While this form of the equation is sufficient for the
majority of applications in thermodynamics, it is frequently rewritten in terms of the local
fluid properties in the study of fluid mechanics and heat transfer. In this text we are

mainly concerned with the overall mass balance and thus consider Eq. 6.1 as the general
expression for the continuity equation.
Since Eq. 6.1 is written for the total mass (lumped form) inside the control volume
we may have to consider several contributions to the mass as
m c . v . = \ pdV^ j{Vv)dV = m A + m B + m c + • « ■
Such a summation is needed when the control volume has several accumulation units with
different states of the mass.
Let us now consider the mass flow rates across the control volume surface in a little
more detail. For simplicity we assume the fluid is flowing in a pipe or duct as illustrated in
Fig. 6.3. We wish to relate the total flow rate that appears in Eq. 6.1 to the local properties
of the fluid state. The flow across the control volume surface can be indicated with an av-
erage velocity shown to the left of the valve or with a distributed velocity over the cross
section as shown to the right of the valve.
The volume flow rate is
V=VA = jVtetdA (6.2)
so the mass flow rate becomes
m = p avg V=Vfv^j QJ^Jv)dA = VA/v (6.3) |q|
where often the average velocity is used. It should be noted that this result, Eq. 6.3, has
been developed for a stationary control surface and we tacitly assumed the flow was
normal to the surface. This expression for the mass flow rate applies to any of the vari-
ous flow streams entering or leaving the control volume, subject to the assumptions
mentioned.
EXAMPLE 6.1 Air is flowing in a 0.2-m-diameter pipe at a uniform velocity of 0.1 m/s. The tempera-
ture is 25°C and the pressure 150 kPa. Determine the mass flow rate.
Solution
From Eq. 6.3 the mass flow rate is
m = VA!v
For air, using R from Table A.5, we have ■■ '/

6.2 The first Law of Thermodynamics
for a Control volume
We have already considered the first law of thermodynamics for a control mass, which
consists of a fixed quantity of mass, and noted, Eq. 5.5, that it may be written
We have also noted that this may be written as an instantaneous rate equation as
dEr " Q-iv (6.4)
dt
To write the first law as a rate equation for a control volume, we proceed in a man-
ner analogous to that used in developing a rate equation for the law of conservation of
mass. For this purpose a control volume is shown in Fig. 6.4 that involves rate of heat
transfer, rates of work, and mass flows. The fundamental physical law states that we can-
not create or destroy energy such that any rate of change of energy must be caused by
rates of energy into or out of the control volume. We have already included rates of heat
transfer and work in Eq. 6.4, so the additional explanations we need are associated with
the mass flow rates.

166 B CHAPTER SIX FIRST-LAW ANALYSIS FOR A CONTROL VOLUME
The fluid flowing across the control surface enters or leaves with an amount of en-
ergy per unit mass as
relating to the state and position of the fluid. Whenever a fluid mass enters a control volume
at state / or exits at state e, there is a boundary movement work associated with that process
To explain this in more detail consider an amount of mass flowing into the control
volume As this mass flows in there is a pressure at its back surface, so as this mass moves
into the control volume it is being pushed by the mass behind it, which is the surround-
ings The net effect is that after the mass has entered the control volume the surroundings
have pushed it in against the local pressure with a velocity giving it a rate of work m the
process Similarly a fluid exiting the control volume at state e must push the surrounding
fluid ahead of it, doing work on it, which is work leaving the control volume. The velocity
and the area correspond to a certain volume per unit time entering the control volume en-
abling us to relate that to the mass flow rate and the specific volume at the state of the
mass going in. Now we are able to express the rate of flow work as
WW = FV = j PVdA=PV= Pvm (6-5)
For the flow that leaves the control volume work is being done by the control volume,
P vJn and for the mass that enters, the surroundings do the rate of work, Pp^. The flow
work per unit mass is then Pv, and the total energy associated with the flow of mass is
e + Pv = u + Pv+\v 2 +gZ=h+±V 2 + gZ (6.6)
In this equation we have used the definition of the thermodynamic property en-
thalpy and it is the appearance of the combination (a + Pv) for the energy in connection
with a mass flow that is the primary reason for the definition of the property enthalpy. Its
introduction earlier in conjunction with the constant-pressure process was to facilitate use-
of the tables of thermodynamic properties at that time.
EXAMPLE 6.2 Assume we are standing next to the local city's mam water line The liquid watery mside
flows at a pressure of say 600 kPa (6 arm) with a temperature of about 10 C. We want to
add a smaller amount, 1 kg, of liquid to the line through a side pipe and valve mounted
on the main line. How much work wilt be involved in this process?
If the 1 kg of liquid water is in a bucket and we open the valve to the water main
trying to pour it down into the pipe opening, we will realize that the water flows the
other way. The water will flow from a higher to a lower pressure, that is, from inside the
main line to the atmosphere (from 600 kPa to 101 fcPa). .
We must take the 1 kg of liquid water and put it into a piston cylmder (like a hand-
held pump) and attach the cylinder to the water pipe. Now we can press on the piston
until the water pressure inside is 600 kPa and then open the valve to the mam lme and
slowly squeeze the 1 kg of water in. The work done at the piston surface to the water is
W= j PdV= F^tet mv = 600 kPa X 1 kg x 0.001 mVkg = 0.6 kJ
and this is the necessary flow work for adding the 1 kg of liquid.
The Steady-State Process H 167
The extension of the first law of thermodynamics from Eq. 6.4 becomes

Qcv. ~ Wcv. + '»/ h t + ±Vf + gZ l \- m e \h e + ±V 2 e + gZ (
In this form of the energy equation the rate of work term is the sum of all shaft work
terms and boundary work terms and any other types of work given out by the control volume;
however, the flow work is now listed separately and included with the mass flow rate terms.
For the general control volume we may have several entering or leaving mass flow
rates, so a summation over those terms is often needed. The final form of the first law of
thermodynamics then becomes
d -^~ = Qcv. ~ Wcs. + £ >"/ (hi + \ V? + gz)j - S (a. + \ V5 + g^j (6.7)
expressing that the rate of change of energy inside the control volume is due to a net rate
of heat transfer, a net rate of work (measured positive out), and the summation of energy
fluxes due to mass flows into and out of the control volume. As with the conservation of
mass, this equation can be written for the total control volume and can therefore be put in
the lumped or integral form where

As the kinetic and potential energy terms per unit mass appear together with the en-
thalpy in all the flow terms, a shorter notation is often used
h l0X = h + ±V 2 + gZ
defining the total enthalpy and the stagnation enthalpy (used in fluid mechanics). The
shorter equation then becomes

giving the general energy equation on a rate form. All applications of the energy equation
start with the form in Eq. 6.8, and for special cases this will result in a slightly simpler
form as shown in the subsequent sections.
6,3 The Steady-State Process
Our first application of the control volume equations will be to develop a suitable analyti-
cal model for the long-term steady operation of devices such as turbines, compressors,
nozzles, boilers, condensers— a very large class of problems of interest in thermodynamic
168 ■ CHAPTER SIX FIRST-LAW ANALYSIS FOR A CONTROL VOLUME
analysis. This model will not include the short-term transient start-up or shutdown of such
devices, but only the steady operating period of time.
Let us consider a certain set of assumptions (beyond those leading to Eqs. 6.1 and
6.7) that lead to a reasonable model for this type of process, which we refer to as the
steady-state process .
1. The control volume does not move relative to the coordinate frame.
2. The state of the mass at each point in the control volume does not vary with time.
3. As for the mass that flows across the control surface, the mass flux and the state of
this mass at each discrete area of flow on the control surface do not vary with time.
The rates at which heat and work cross the control surface remain constant.
As an example of a steady-state process consider a centrifugal air compressor that op-
erates with constant mass rate of flow into and out of the compressor, constant properties at
each point across the inlet and exit ducts, a constant rate of heat transfer to the surroundings,
and a constant power input. At each point in the compressor the properties are constant with
time, even though the properties of a given elemental mass of air vary as it flows through the
compressor. Often, such a process is referred to as a steady-flow process, since we are con-
cerned primarily with the properties of the fluid entering and leaving the control volume.
However, in the analysis of certain heat transfer problems in which the same assumptions
apply, we are primarily interested in the spatial distribution of properties, particularly temper-
ature/and such a process is referred to as a steady-state process. Since this is an introductory
book we will use the term steady-state process for both. The student should realize that the
terms steady-state process and steady-flow process are both used extensively in the literature.
Let us now consider the significance of each of these assumptions for the steady-
state process.
1. The assumption that the control volume does not move relative to the coordinate
frame means that all velocities measured relative to the coordinate frame are also
velocities relative to the control surface, and there is no work associated with the
acceleration of the control volume.
2. The assumption that the state of the mass at each point in the control volume does
not vary with time requires that

Therefore, we conclude that for the steady-state process we can write, from Eqs. 6.1
and 6.7,
Continuity equation; ^ m t — X ™ e

First law: fi cv . + 2 «h (*/ + y + 8 Z ) = 2 < [k + y + + ^c.v ; (6.10)
3. The assumption that the various mass flows, states, and rates at which heat and
work cross the control surface remain constant requires that every quantity in Eqs.
Examples of Steady-State Processes H 169
6.9 and 6,10 be steady with time. This means that application of Eqs. 6.9 and 6.10
to the operation of some device is independent of time.
Many of the applications of the steady-state model are such that there is only one flow
stream entering and one leaving the control volume. For this type of process, we can write
Continuity equation: »i ( = m e ~ in (6.11)
First law : 2c.v. + m + y + gz)j = m (ji e + ^ + gz)j + IF C;V . (6. 1 2)
Rearranging this equation, we have

Qc.V. , **C.V. r£\A\
q = — : — and w = ■ ■ ■■ . (6.14)
m m
Note that the units for q and w are kj/kg. From their definition, q and w can be
thought of as the heat transfer and work (other than flow work) per unit mass flowing into
and out of the control volume for this particular steady-state process.
The symbols q and w are also used for the heat transfer and work per unit mass of a
control mass. However, since it is always evident from the context whether it is a control
mass (fixed mass) or control volume (involving a flow of mass) with which we are con-
cerned, the significance of the symbols q and w will also be readily evident in each situation.
The steady-state process is often used in the analysis of reciprocating machines,
such as reciprocating compressors or engines. In this case the rate of flow, which may ac-
tually be pulsating, is considered to be the average rate of flow for an integral number of
cycles. A similar assumption is made regarding the properties of the fluid flowing across
the control surface and the heat transfer and work crossing the control surface. It is also
assumed that for an integral number of cycles the reciprocating device undergoes, the en-
ergy and mass within the control volume do not change.
A number of examples are now given to illustrate the analysis of steady-state
processes.
6.4 EXAMPLES OF STEADY-STATE PROCESSES
In this section, we consider a number of examples of steady-state processes in which there
is one fluid stream entering and one leaving the control volume, such that the first law can
be written in the form of Eq. 6,13. Some may instead utilize control volumes that include
more than one fluid stream, such that it is necessary to write the first law in the more gen-
eral form of Eq. 6.10.
Heat Exchanger
A steady-state heat exchanger is a simple fluid flow through a pipe or system of pipes,
where heat is transferred to or from the fluid. The fluid may be heated or cooled, and may
or may not boil, liquid to vapor, or condense, vapor to liquid. One such example is the

condenser in an R-I34a refrigeration system, as shown in Fig. 6.5. Superheated vapor en-
ters the condenser, and liquid exits. The process tends to occur at constant pressure, since
a fluid flowing in a pipe usually undergoes only a small pressure drop, because of fluid
friction at the walls. The pressure drop may or may not be taken into account in a particu-
lar analysis. There is no means for doing any work (shaft work, electrical work, etc.), and
changes in kinetic and potential energies are commonly negligibly small. (One exception
may be a boiler tube in which liquid enters and vapor exits at a much larger specific vol-
ume. In such a case, it may be necessary to check the exit velocity using Eq. 6.3.) The
heat transfer in most heat exchangers is then found from Eq. 6.13 as the change in en-
thalpy of the fluid. In the condenser shown in Fig. 6.5, the heat transfer out of the con-
denser then goes to whatever is receiving it, perhaps a stream of air or of cooling water. It
is often simpler to write the first law around the entire heat exchanger, including both flow
streams, in which case there is little or no heat transfer with the surroundings. Such a situ-
ation is the subject of the following example.
EXAMPLE 6.3 Consider a water-cooled condenser in a large refrigeration system in which R-134a is
the refrigerant fluid. The refrigerant enters the condenser at 1.0 MPa and 60°C, at the
rate of 0.2 kg/s, and exits as a liquid at 0.95 MPa and 35°C. Cooling water enters the
condenser at 10°C and exits at 20°C. Determine the rate at which cooling water flows
through the condenser.

Analysis
With this control volume we have two fluid streams, the R-134a and the water, entering
and leaving the control volume. It is reasonable to assume that both kinetic and potential
energy changes are negligible. We note that the work is zero, and we make the other rea-
sonable assumption that there is no heat transfer across the control surface. Therefore,
the first law, Eq. 6.10, reduces to

Solution
From the R-134a and steam tables, we have

(h e ) r = 249.10 kJ/kg, (h e ) w = 83.95 kJ/kg

This problem can also be solved by considering two separate control volumes, one
having the flow of R-134a across its control surface and the other having the flow of
water across its control surface. Further, there is heat transfer from one control volume
to the other.
The heat transfer for the control volume involving R-134a is calculated first. In
this case the steady-state energy equation, Eq. 6.10, reduces to

Nozzle
A nozzle is a steady-state device whose purpose is to create a high-velocity fluid stream at
the expense of the fluid's pressure. It is contoured in an appropriate manner to expand a
flowing fluid smoothly to a lower pressure, thereby increasing its velocity. There is no
means to do any work— there are no moving parts. There is little or no change in potential
energy and usually little or no heat transfer. An exception is the large nozzle on a liquid-
propellant rocket, such as was described in Section 1.7, in which the cold propellant is
commonly circulated around the outside of the nozzle walls before going to the combus-
tion chamber, in order to keep the nozzle from melting. This case, a nozzle with signifi-
cant heat transfer, is the exception and would be noted in such an application. In addition,
the kinetic energy of the fluid at the nozzle inlet is usually small and would be neglected if
its value is not known.
EXAMPLE 6.4 Steam at 0.6 MPa and 200°C enters an insulated nozzle with a velocity of 50 m/s. It
leaves at a pressure of 0.15 MPa and a velocity of 600 m/s. Determine the final tempera-
ture if the steam is superheated in the final state and the quality if it is saturated.

Diffuser
A steady-state diffuser is a device constructed to decelerate a high-velocity fluid in a man-
ner that results in an increase in pressure of the fluid. In essence, it is the exact opposite of a
nozzle, and it may be thought of as a fluid flowing in the opposite direction through a noz-
zle, with the opposite effects. The assumptions are similar to those for a nozzle, with a large
kinetic energy at the diffuser inlet and a small, but usually not negligible, kinetic energy at
the exit being the only terms besides the enthalpies remaining in the first law, Eq. 6. 13.
Throttle
A throttling process occurs when a fluid flowing in a line suddenly encounters a restric-
tion in the flow passage. This may be a plate with a small hole in it, as shown in Fig. 6.8,
it may be a partially closed valve protruding into the flow passage, or it may be a change
to a much smaller diameter tube, called a capillary tube, which is normally found on a re-
frigerator. The result of this restriction is an abrupt pressure drop in the fluid, as it is
forced to find its way through a suddenly smaller passageway. This process is drastically
unlike the smoothly contoured nozzle expansion and area change, which results in a sig-
nificant velocity increase. There is typically some increase in velocity in a throttle, but
both inlet and exit kinetic energies are usually small enough to be neglected. There is no
means for doing work and little or no change in potential energy. Usually, there is neither
time nor opportunity for an appreciable heat transfer, such that the only terms left in the
first law, Eq. 6.13, are the inlet and exit enthalpies. We conclude that a steady-state throt-
tling process is approximately a pressure drop at constant enthalpy, and we will assume
this to be the case unless otherwise noted.
Frequently, a throttling process involves a change in the phase of the fluid. A typical
example is the flow through the expansion valve of a vapor-compression refrigeration
system. The following example deals with this problem.
Control surface

Examples of Steady-State processes B 175
EXAMPLE 6.5 Consider the throttling process across the expansion valve or through the capillary tube
in a vapor-compression refrigeration cycle. In this process the pressure of the refriger-
ant drops from the high pressure in the condenser to the low pressure in the evaporator,
and during this process some of the liquid flashes into vapor. If we consider this
process to be adiabatic, the quality of the refrigerant entering the evaporator can be
calculated.
Consider the following process, in which ammonia is the refrigerant. The ammo-
nia enters the expansion valve at a pressure of 1.50 MPa and a temperature of 35°C. Its
pressure on leaving the expansion valve is 291 kPa. Calculate the quality of 'the ammo-
nia leaving the expansion valve.

We can use standard throttling process analysis and assumptions. The first law reduces
to

Solution
From the ammonia tables we get
h t = 346.8 kJ/kg
(The enthalpy of a slightly compressed liquid is essentially equal to the enthalpy of satu-
rated liquid at the same temperature.)

x e = 0.1638 = 16.38%
Turbine
A turbine is a rotary steady-state machine whose purpose is to produce shaft work
(power, on a rate basis) at the expense of the pressure of the working fluid. Two general
classes of turbines are steam (or other working fluid) turbines, in which the steam exiting
the turbine passes to a condenser, where it is condensed to liquid, and gas turbines, in
which the gas usually exhausts to the atmosphere from the turbine. In either type, the tur-
bine exit pressure is fixed by the environment into which the working fluid exhausts, and
the turbine inlet pressure has been reached by previously pumping or compressing the
working fluid in another process. Inside the turbine, there are two distinct processes. In
the first, the working fluid passes through a set of nozzles, or the equivalent — fixed blade
passages contoured to expand the fluid to a lower pressure and to a high velocity. In the
second process inside the turbine, this high-velocity fluid stream is directed onto a set of
176 H CHAPTER SIX FIRST-LAW ANALYSIS FOR A CONTROL VOLUME
moving (rotating) blades, in which the velocity is reduced before being discharged from
the passage. This directed velocity decrease produces a torque on the rotating shaft, re-
sulting in a shaft work output. The low-velocity, low-pressure fluid then exhausts from
the turbine.
The first law for this process is either Eq. 6.10 or 6.13. Usually, changes in poten-
tial energy are negligible, as is the inlet kinetic energy. Often, the exit kinetic energy is
neglected, and any heat rejection from the turbine is undesirable and is commonly small.
We therefore normally assume that a turbine process is adiabatic, and the work output in
this case reduces to the decrease in enthalpy form the inlet to exit states. In the follow-
ing example, however, we include alt the terms in the first law and study their relative
importance.

w = 452.11 kJ/kg
W cy . = 1.5 kg/s X 452.1 1 kJ/kg = 678.2 kW
Two further observations can be made by referring to this example. First, in many
engineering problems, potential energy changes are insignificant when compared with the
other energy quantities. In the above example the potential energy change did not affect
any of the significant figures. In most problems where the change in elevation is small the
potential energy terms may be neglected.
Second, if velocities are small — say, under 20 m/s — in many cases the kinetic
energy is insignificant compared with other energy quantities. Furthermore, when the
178 H
Chapter Six First-Law analysis for a Control Volume
velocities entering and leaving the system are essentially the same, the change in ki-
netic energy is small. Since it is the change in kinetic energy that is important in the
steady-state energy equation, the kinetic energy terms can usually be neglected when
there is no significant difference between the velocity of the fluid entering and that
leaving the control volume. Thus, in many thermodynamic problems, one must make
judgments as to which quantities may be negligible for a given analysis.
The preceding discussion and example concerned the turbine, which is a rotary
work-producing device. There are other nonrotary devices that produce work, which can
be called expanders as a general name. In such devices, the first-law analysis and assump-
tions are generally the same as for turbines, except that in a piston/cylinder type expander,
there would in most cases be a larger heat loss or rejection during the process.
Compressor and Pump
The purpose of a steady-state compressor (gas) or pump (liquid) is the same: to increase
the pressure of a fluid by putting in shaft work (power, on a rate basis). There are two fun-
damentally different classes of compressors. The most common is a rotary-type compres-
sor (either axial flow or radial/centrifugal flow), in which the internal processes are
essentially the opposite of the two processes occurring inside a turbine. The working fluid
enters the compressor at low pressure, moving into a set of rotation blades, from which it
exits at high velocity, a result of the shaft work input to the fluid. The fluid then passes
through a diffuser section, in which it is decelerated in a manner that results in a pressure
increase. The fluid then exits the compressor at high pressure.
The first law for the compressor is either Eq. 6.10 or 6.13. Usually, changes in po-
tential energy are negligible, as is the inlet kinetic energy. Often the exit kinetic energy is
neglected, as well. Heat rejection from the working fluid during compression would be
desirable, but it is usually small in a rotary compressor, which is a high-volume flow-rate
machine, and there is not sufficient time to transfer much heat from the working fluid. We
therefore normally assume that a rotary compressor process is adiabatic, and the work
input in this case reduces to the change in enthalpy from the inlet to exit states.
In a piston/cylinder-type compressor, the cylinder usually contains fins to promote heat
rejection during compression (or the cylinder may be water-jacketed in a large compressor
for even greater cooling rates). In this type of compressor, the heat transfer from the working
fluid is significant and is not neglected in the first law. As a general rule, in any example or
problem in this text, we will assume that a compressor is adiabatic unless otherwise noted.
EXAMPLE 6.7 The compressor in a plant (see Fig. 6.10) receives carbon dioxide at 100 kPa, 280 K,
with a low velocity. At the compressor discharge, the carbon dioxide exits at 1 100 kPa,
500 K, with velocity of 25 m/s and then flows into a constant-pressure aftercooler (heat
exchanger) where it is cooled down to 350 K. The power input to the compressor is 50
kW. Determine the heat transfer rate in the aftercooler.

There is a certain advantage in assigning a number to various points in the cycle.
For this reason the subscripts i and e in the steady-state energy equation are often re-
placed by appropriate numbers.
Since there are several control volumes to be considered in the solution to this
problem, let us consolidate our solution procedure somewhat in this example. Using the
notation of Fig. 6.12, we have:
All processes: Steady-state.
Model: Steam tables.
From the steam tables:
h t - 3023.5 kJ/kg
h 2 = 3002.5 kJ/kg
h 3 = 226.0 + 0.9(2373.1) = 2361.8 kJ/kg
h 4 = 188.5 kJ/kg
All analyses: No changes in kinetic or potential energy will be considered in
the'solution. In each case, the first law is given by Eq. 6.13,
Now, we proceed to answer the specific questions raised in the problem statement.
a. For the control volume for the pipe line between the boiler and the turbine, the first
law and solution are
i?i + h = h 2
i?2 = h 2 -h x = 3002.5 - 3023.5 = -21.0 kJ/kg

b. A turbine is essentially an adiabatic machine. Therefore, it is reasonable to neglect
heat transfer in the first law, so that
h 2 /i 3 4- 2 u 'j

c. There is no work for the control volume enclosing the condenser. Therefore, the first
law and solution are

d. If we consider a control volume enclosing the boiler, the work is equal to zero, so that
the first law becomes
ill >• fh ~ /'1
A solution requires a value for h 5 , which can be found by taking a control volume
around the pump:
h s = 188.5 - (-4) = 192.5 kJ/kg
Therefore, for the boiler,
rfi + h = Ai
- 3023.5 - 192.5 - 2831 kJ/kg

through each component is 0.1 kg/s, and the power input to the compressor is 5.0 kW.

6.5 THE TRANSIENT PROCESS
In Sections 6.3 arid 6.4 we considered the steady-state process and several examples of its
application. Many processes of interest in thermodynamics involve unsteady flow and do
not fit into this category. A certain group of these — for example, filling closed tanks with
a gas or liquid, or discharge from closed vessels— can be reasonably represented to a first
approximation by another simplified model. We call this process the transient process, for
184 @ chafter six first-Law analysis for a control volume
convenience, recognizing that our model includes specific assumptions that are not al-
ways valid. Our transient model assumptions are as follows:
1. The control volume remains constant relative to the coordinate frame.
2. The state of the mass within the control volume may change with time, but at any
instant of time the state is uniform throughout the entire control volume (or over
several identifiable regions that make up the entire control volume),
3. The state of the mass crossing each of the areas of flow on the control surface is
constant with time although the mass flow rates may be time varying.
Let us examine the consequence of these assumptions and derive an expression for the
first law that applies to this process. The assumption that the control volume remains station-
ary relative to the coordinate frame has already been discussed in Section 6.3. The remaining
assumptions lead to the following simplifications for the continuity equation and the first law.
The overall process occurs during time /. At any instant of time during the process,
the continuity equation is
dm C y.
dt
where the summation is over all areas on the control surface through which flow occurs. Inte-
grating over time t gives the change of mass in the control volume during the overall process:
The total mass leaving the control volume during time t is
and the total mass entering the control volume during time / is
Therefore, for this period of time t, we can write the continuity equation for the
transient process as
(m 2 - >»i)c.v. + 2 m e - X m t = (6.15)
In writing the first law of the transient process we consider Eq. 6.7, which applies at any
instant of time during the process:
(V 2 * \ dE ( V 2 \
A, + + gZ,j = - jp + £ m e [h e + f + gZ e J + Wfcv.
Since at any instant of time the state within the control volume is uniform, the first law for
the transient process becomes

(6.16)
As an example of the type of problem for which these assumptions are valid and Eq.
6.16 is appropriate, let us consider the classic problem of flow into an evacuated vessel.
This is the subject of Example 6.11.
EXAMPLE 6.11 Steam at a pressure of 1.4 MPa and temperature of 300°C is flowing in a pipe (Fig.
6.14). Connected to this pipe through a valve is an evacuated tank. The valve is opened
and the tank fills with steam until the pressure is 1.4 MPa, and then the valve is closed.
The process takes place adiabatically and kinetic energies and potential energies are
negligible. Determine the final temperature of the sieam.
Control volume: Tank, as shown in Fig. 6.14.

We note that £? cv . = 0, W CmVm = 0, m e = 0, and (wti) c .v. = 0. We further assume
that changes in kinetic and potential energy are negligible. Therefore, the statement of
the first law for this process reduces to
From the continuity equation for this process, Eq. 6.15, we conclude that
m z = m,
Therefore, combining the continuity equation with the first law, we have
hi = u 2
That is, the final internal energy of the steam in the tank is equal to the enthalpy of the
steam entering the tank.
Solution
From the steam tables we obtain
h ( = u 2 = 3040.4 kJ/kg
Since the final pressure is given as 1.4 MPa, we know two properties at the final
state and therefore the final state is detennined. The temperature corresponding to a
pressure of 1.4 MPa and an internal energy of 3040.4 kJ/kg is found to be 452°C.
This problem can also be solved by considering the steam that enters the tank and
the evacuated space as a control mass, as indicated in Fig. 6.15.
The process is adiabatic, but we must examine the boundaries for work. If we
visualize a piston between the steam that is included in the control mass and the
steam that flows behind, we readily recognize that the boundaries move and that the

steam in the pipe does work on the steam that comprises the control mass. The
amount of this work is
-W=P l V l = mP^Vy
Writing the first law for the control mass, Eq. 5.1 1, and noting that kinetic and potential
energies can be neglected, we have
X Q 2 =U 2 -U X + X W 2
§ = U 2 -U x -P l V x
= mu 2 — mu x - mP l v l = mu 2 — mlh
Therefore,
u 2 = h x
which is the same conclusion that was reached using a control volume analysis.
The two other examples that follow illustrate further the transient process.
EXAMPLE 6,12 Let the tank of the previous example have a volume of 0.4 m3 and initially contain satu-
rated vapor at 350 kPa. The valve is then opened and steam from the line at 1.4 MPa and
3007C flows into the tank until the pressure is 1 .4 MPa.
Calculate the mass of steam that flows into the tank.

The situation is the same as in Example 6.10, except that the tank is not evacuated ini-
tially. Again we note that £ c v . = 0, W cs . = 0, and m t = 0, and we assume that changes
in kinetic and potential energy are zero. The statement of the first law for this process,
Eq. 6.16, reduces to

188 H chapter Six first-law analysis for a Control Volume
The continuity equation, Eq, 6.15, reduces to
m 2 — mi ~ m i
Therefore, combining the continuity equation with the first law, we have
(»b. ~ "hVh " "h*h ~
m 2 (h; ~ u 2 ) ~ mi(h r «,) (a)
There are two unknowns in this equation — m 2 and a 2 . However, we have one addi-
tional equation:

Substituting (b) into (a) and rearranging, we have
V
v 2 Qh ■■ "2) ~ "hVh - «,) = (c)
in which the only unknowns are v 2 and u 2i both functions of T 2 and P 2 . Since T z is un-
known, it means that there is only one value of T 2 for which Eq. (c) will be satisfied, and
we must find it by trial and error.
Solution
We have
v t = 0.5243 m 3 /kg, v h = = 0.763 kg
hi= 3040.4 kJ/kg, « L = 2548.9 kj/kg
Assume that
T 2 -■ 300°C
For this temperature and the known value of P 2 , we get
u 2 = 0.1823 mVkg, u 2 = 2785.2 kJ/kg
Substituting into (c), we obtain
^-^•(3040.4 - 2785.2) - 0.763(3040.4 - 2548.9) = +185.0 kJ
Now assume instead that
T 2 --= 350°C
For this temperature and the known P 2 , we get
v 2 = 0.2003 mVkg, u 2 = 2869.1 kj/kg
The Transient Process H 189
Substituting these values into (c), we pbtain
q|^(3040.4 - 2869.1) - 0.763(3040.4 - 2548.9) = ~32.9kJ
and we find that the actual T 2 must be between these two assumed values, in order that
(c) be equal to zero. By interpolation,
T 2 = 342°C and v 2 = 0.1974 mVkg
The final mass inside the tank is

EXAMPLE 6. 13 A tank of 2 m 3 volume contains saturated ammonia at a temperature of 40°C. Initially the
tank contains 60% liquid and 50% vapor by volume. Vapor is withdrawn from the top of
the tank until the temperature is 10°C. Assuming that only vapor (i.e., no liquid) leaves
and that the process is adiabatic, calculate the mass of ammonia that is withdrawn.

Analysis
In the first law, Eq. 6.16, we note that Q c y = 0, W c v _ = 0, and m ; = 0, and we assume
that changes in kinetic and potential energy are negligible. However, the enthalpy of sat-
urated vapor varies with temperature, and therefore we cannot simply assume that the
enthalpy of the vapor leaving the tank remains constant. However, we note that at 40°C,
h g = 1470.2 kJ/kg and at 10°C, h g = 1452.0 kJ/kg. Since the change in h g during this
process is small, we may accurately assume that h e is the average of the two values
given above. Therefore,
(h e \v= 1461.1 kJ/kg

u n = 368.7 kJ/kg, m x1 = 1341.0

Calculating first the initial mass, m u in the tank, we find that the mass of the liquid
initially present, m^, is

Similarly, the initial mass of vapor, m gU is

m x u x = (mu) A + (mu) gl = 579.7 X 368.7 + 12.0 X 1341.0

Substituting these into the first law, we obtain
m 2 (K ~ "2) = miK ~ JWi«i = 864 533 - 229 827 = 634 706

iUjVIMARY conservation of mass is expressed as a rate of change of total mass due to mass flows in
or out of the control volume. The control mass energy equation is extended to include
mass flows that also carry energy (internal, kinetic, and potential) and the flow work
needed to push the flow in or out of the control volume against the prevailing pressure.
The conservation of mass (continuity equation) and the conservation of energy (first law)
are applied to a number of standard devices.
A steady-state device has no storage effects, with ail properties constant with time, and
constitutes the majority of all flow-type devices. A combination of several devices forms a
complete system built for a specific purpose, such as a power plant, jet engine, or refrigerator.
A transient process with a change in mass (storage) such as filling or emptying of a
container is considered based on an average description. It is also realized that the start-up
or shutdown of a steady-state device leads to a transient process.
You should have learned a number of skills and acquired abilities from studying
this chapter that will allow you to
• Understand the physical meaning of the conservation equations. Rate = +in - out
• Understand the concepts of mass flow rate, volume flow rate, and local velocity
• Recognize the flow and nonflow terms in the energy equation
• Know how the most typical devices work and if they have heat or work transfers
• Have a sense about devices where kinetic and potential energies are important
• Analyze steady-state single-flow devices such as nozzles, throttles, turbines, or pumps
• Extend the application to a multiple-flow device such as a heat exchanger, mixing
chamber, or turbine, given the specific setup
• Apply the conservation equations to complete systems as a whole or to the individ-
ual devices and recognize their connections and interactions
• Recognize and use the proper form of the equations for transient problems
• Be able to assume a proper average value for any flow term in a transient
• Recognize the difference between storage of energy (dEldf) and flow (mh)
A number of steady-flow devices are listed in Table 6.1 with a very short statement
of the device's purpose, known facts about work and heat transfer, and a common as-
sumption if appropriate. This list is not complete with respect to the number of devices
nor with respect to the facts listed but is meant as a short list of typical devices, some of
which may be unfamiliar to many readers.

6.157 E In a steam generator, compressed liquid water at
1500 lbf/in 2 , 100 F enters a 1-in-diameter tube
at the rate of 5 ftVmin. Steam at 1250 lbf/in 2 ,
750 F exits the tube. Find the rate of heat trans-
fer to the water.
6.158E Carbon dioxide gas enters a steady-state, steady-
flow heater at 45 lbf/in 2 , 60 F and exits at 40
lbf/in 2 , 1800 F. It is shown in Fig. P6.63, where
changes in kinetic and potential energies are neg-
ligible. Calculate the required heat transfer per
Ibm of carbon dioxide flowing through the heater.
6,159 E A flow of liquid glycerine flows around an engine,

glycerine should come out at a maximum 200 F?
6.160E A small water pump is used in an irrigation sys-
tem. The pump takes water in from a river at 50
F, 1 arm at a rate of 10 Ibm/s. The exit line en-
ters a pipe that goes up to an elevation 60 ft
above the pump and river, where the water runs

drawn at 300 lbf/in 2 , 650 F and the rest exits the
turbine at 10 lbf/in 2 , 95% quality. Assuming no
heat transfer and no changes in kinetic energy,
find the total turbine power output.
6.162 E A condenser, as the heat exchanger shown in
Fig. P6.84, brings 1 lbm/s water flow at 1 lbf/in 2
from 500 F to saturated liquid at 1 lbf/in 2 . The
cooling is done by lake water at 70 F that re-
turns to the lake at 90 F. For an insulated con-
denser, find the flow rate of cooling water.

with R-134a of saturated liquid at 130 F flows
through a valve to the mixing chamber at 150
lbf/in 2 after the valve. The exit flow is saturated
vapor at 150 lbf/in 2 flowing at 60 ft/s. Find the
mass flow rate for the second line.

suming the process is adiabatic. Develop an ex-

6.171E Helium in a steel tank is at 40 psia, 540 R with a
volume of 4 ft 3 . It is used to fill a balloon. When
the tank pressure drops to 24 psia, the flow of
helium stops by itself. If all the helium still is at
540 R, how big a balloon did I get? Assume the
pressure in the balloon varies linearly with vol-
ume from 14.7 psia (V = 0) to the final 24 psia.

6.1 74E A nitrogen line, 540 R, 75 lbf/in 2 is connected to
a turbine that exhausts to a closed initially
empty tank of 2000 ft 3 , as shown in Fig. P6.1 19.
The turbine operates to a tank pressure of 75
lbf/in 2 , at which point the temperature is 450 R.

that this is an impossible process by looking at air

The Second law of
THERMODYNAMICS
The first law of thermodynamics states that during any cycle that a system undergoes, the
cyclic integral of the heat is equal to the cyclic integral of the work. The first law, how-
ever, places no restrictions on the direction of flow of heat and work. A cycle in which a
given amount of heat is transferred from the system and an equal amount of work is done
on the system satisfies the first law just as well as a cycle in which the flows of heat and
work are reversed. However, we know from our experience that because a proposed cycle
does not violate the first law does not ensure that the cycle will actually occur. It is this
kind of experimental evidence that led to the formulation of the second law of thermody-
namics. Thus, a cycle will occur only if both the first and second laws of thermodynamics
are satisfied.
In its broader significance, the second law acknowledges that processes proceed in
a certain direction but not in the opposite direction. A hot cup of coffee cools by virtue of
heat transfer to the surroundings, but heat will not flow from the cooler surroundings to
the hotter cup of coffee. Gasoline is used as a car drives up a hill, but the fuel level in the
gasoline tank cannot be restored to its original level when the car coasts down the hill.
Such familiar observations as these, and a host of others, are evidence of the validity of
the second law of thermodynamics.
In this chapter, we consider the second law for a system undergoing a cycle, and in
the next two chapters we extend the principles to a system undergoing a change of state
and then to a control volume.
7.1 Heat Engines and refrigerators
Consider the system and the surroundings previously cited in the development of the first
law, as shown in Fig. 7.1. Let the gas constitute the system and, as in our discussion of
the first law, let this system undergo a cycle in which work is first done on the system by
the paddle wheel as the weight is lowered. Then let the cycle be completed by transfer-
ring heat to the surroundings.
We know from our experience that we cannot reverse this cycle. That is, if we
transfer heat to the gas, as shown by the dotted arrow, the temperature of the gas will in-
crease, but the paddle wheel will not turn and raise the weight. With the given surround-
ings (the container, the paddle wheel, and the weight), this system can operate in' a cycle
in which the heat transfer and work are both negative, but it cannot operate in a cycle in
which both the heat transfer and work are positive, even though this would not violate the
first law.

Consider another cycle, known from our experience to be impossible actually to
complete. Let two systems, one at a high temperature and the other at a low temperature,
undergo a process in which a quantity of heat is transferred from the high-temperature
system to the low-temperature system. We know that this process can take place. We also
know that the reverse process, in which heat is transferred from the low-temperature sys-
tem to the high-temperature system, does not occur, and that it is impossible to complete
the cycle by heat transfer only. This impossibility is illustrated in Fig. 7.2.
These two examples lead us to a consideration of the heat engine and the refrigera-
tor, which is also referred to as a heat pump. With the heat engine we can have a system
that operates in a cycle and performs a net positive work and a net positive heat transfer.
With the heat pump we can have a system that operates in a cycle and has heat transferred
to it from a low-temperature body and heat transferred from it to a high-temperature body,
though work is required to do this. Three simple heat engines and two simple refrigerators
will be considered.
The first heat engine is shown in Fig. 7,3. It consists of a cylinder fitted with appro-
priate stops and a piston. Let the gas in the cylinder constitute the system. Initially the pis-
ton rests on the lower stops, with a weight on the platform. Let the system now undergo a
process in which heat is transferred from some high-temperature body to the gas, causing
it to expand and raise the piston to the upper stops. At this point the weight is removed.
Now let the system be restored to its initial state by transferring heat from the gas to a
low-temperature body, thus completing the cycle. Since the weight was raised during the
cycle, it is evident that work was done by the gas during the cycle. From the first law we
conclude that the net heat transfer was positive and equal to the work done during the
cycle.
Such a device is called a heat engine, and the substance to which and from which
heat is transferred is called the working substance or working fluid. A heat engine may
be defined as a device that operates in a thermodynamic cycle and does a certain amount
of 'net positive work through the transfer of heat from a high-temperature body to a low-
temperature body. Often the term heat engine is used in a broader sense to include all de-
vices that produce work, either through heat transfer or through combustion, even though
the device does not operate in a thermodynamic cycle. The internal combustion engine

and the gas turbine are examples of such devices, and calling them heat engines is an ac-
ceptable use of the term. In this chapter, however, we are concerned with the more re-
stricted form of heat engine, as just defined, one that operates on a thermodynamic cycle.
A simple steam power plant is an example of a heat engine in this restricted sense-
Each component in this plant may be analyzed individually as a steady-state, steady-flow
process, but as a whole it may be considered a heat engine (Fig. 7.4) in which water
(steam) is the working fluid. An amount of heat, Q Hi is transferred from a high-temperature
body, which may be the products of combustion in a furnace, a reactor, or a secondary
fluid that in turn has been heated in a reactor. In Fig. 7.4 the turbine is shown schemati-
cally as driving the pump. What is significant, however, is the net work that is delivered
during the cycle. The quantity of heat Q L is rejected to a low-temperature body, which is
usually the cooling water in a condenser. Thus, the simple steam power plant is a heat en-
gine in the restricted sense, for it has a working fluid, to which and from which heat is
transferred, and which does a certain amount of work as it undergoes a cycle.
Another example of a heat engine is the thermoelectric power generation device that
was discussed in Chapter 1 and shown schematically in Fig. 1.8b. Heat is transferred from
a high-temperature body to the hot junction (Q H X and heat is transferred from the cold
junction to the surroundings (Q L ). Work is done in the form of electrical energy. Since
there is no working fluid, we do not usually think of this as a device that operates in a
Boiler

cycle. However, if we adopt, a microscopic point of view, we could regard a cycle as the
flow of electrons. Furthermore, as with the steam power plant, the state at each point in the
thermoelectric power generator does not change with time under steady-state conditions.
Thus, by means of a heat engine, we are able to have a system operate in a cycle and
have hoth the net work and the net heat transfer positive, which we were not able to do
with the system and surroundings of Fig. 7.1.
We note that in using the symbols Q H and Q L , we have departed from our sign connota-
tion for heat, because for a heat engine Q L is negative when the working fluid is considered as
the system. In this chapter it will be advantageous to use the symbol Q H to represent the heat
transfer to or from the high-temperature body, and Q L to represent the heat transfer to or from
the low-temperature body. The direction of the heat transfer will be evident from the context.
At this point, it is appropriate to introduce the concept of thermal efficiency of a
heat engine. In general, we say that efficiency is the ratio of output, the energy sought, to
input, the energy that costs, but the output and input must be clearly defined. At the risk of
oversimplification, we may say that in a heat engine the energy sought is the work, and
the energy that costs money is the heat from the high-temperature source (indirectly, the
cost of the fuel). Thermal efficiency is defined as
_ ^(energy sought) _ Q H - Q L Q L
VM &(energy that costs) Q H Q H ^ /A)
Heat engines vary greatly in size and shape, from large steam engines, gas turbines,
or jet engines, to gasoline engines for cars and diesel engines for trucks or cars, to much
smaller engines for lawn mowers or hand-held devices such as chain saws or trimmers.
Typical values for the thermal efficiency of real engines are about 35-50% for large power
plants, 30-35% for gasoline engines, and 35-40% for diesel engines. Smaller utility-type
engines may have only about 20% efficiency, owing to their simple carburetion and con-
trols and to the fact that some losses scale differently with size and therefore represent a
larger fraction for smaller machines.
EXAMPLE 7.1 An automobile engine produces 136 hp on the output shaft with a thermal efficiency of
30%. The fuel it burns gives 35 000 kJ/kg as energy release. Find the total rate of energy
rejected to the ambient and the rate of fuel consumption in kg/s.
Solution
From the definition of a heat engine efficiency, Eq. 7.1, and the conversion of hp from
Table A.l we have:
W = V^Qh = 136 hp X 0.7355 kW/hp = 100 fcW

The energy equation for the overall engine gives:

FIGURE 7.5 Sketch for Example 7.1.
An actual engine shown in Fig. 7.5 rejects energy to the ambient through the radiator
cooled by atmospheric air, as heat transfer from the exhaust system and the exhaust flow
ofhotgases.
The second cycle that we were not able to complete was the one indicating the im-
possibility of transferring heat directly from a low-temperature body to a high-temperature
body. This can of course be done with a refrigerator or heat pump. A vapor-compression
refrigerator cycle, which was introduced in Chapter 1 and shown in Fig. 1.7, is shown again
in Fig. 7.6. The working fluid is the refrigerant, such as R-134a or ammonia, which goes
through a thermodynamic cycle. Heat is transferred to the refrigerant in the evaporator,
where its pressure and temperature are low. Work is done on the refrigerant in the compres-
sor, and heat is transferred from it in the condenser, where its pressure and temperature are
high. The pressure drops as the refrigerant flows through the throttle valve or capillary tube.
Thus, in a refrigerator or heat pump, we have a device that operates in a cycle, that re-
quires work, and that accomplishes the objective of transferring heat from a low-temperature,
body to a high-temperature body.
The thermoelectric refrigerator, which was discussed in Chapter 1 and shown
schematically in Fig. 1.8a, is another example of a device that meets our definition of a re-
frigerator. The work input to the thermoelectric refrigerator is in the form of electrical en-
ergy, and heat is transferred from the refrigerated space to the cold junction {Q L ) and from
the hot junction to the surroundings {Q H ).
System boundary

Heat Engines and Refrigerators M 219
The "efficiency" of a. refrigerator is expressed in terms of the coefficient of perfor-
mance, which we designate with the symbol j8. For a refrigerator the objective, that is, the
energy sought, is Q Li the heat transferred from the refrigerated space. The energy that
costs is the work W. Thus, the coefficient of performance, is
a = 6l (energy sought) = Q L _ 1 ( 2)
P ^(energy that costs) Q H - Q L Q^Ql ~ 1
A household refrigerator may have a coefficient of performance (often referred to as
COP) of about 2.5, whereas a deep freeze unit will be closer to 1.0. Lower cold tempera-
ture space of higher warm temperature space will result in lower values of COP, as will be
found in Section 7.6. For a heat pump operating over a moderate temperature range, a
value of its COP can be around 4, with this value decreasing sharply as the heat pump's
operating temperature range is broadened.
EXAMPLE 7.2 The refrigerator in a kitchen shown in Fig. 7.7 receives an electrical input power of
150 W to drive the system, and it rejects 400 W to the kitchen air. Find the rate of en-
ergy taken out of the cold space and the coefficient of performance of the refrigerator.
FIGURE 7.7 Sketch

5 It should be noted that a refrigeration or heat pump cycle can be used with either of two objec-
tives. It can be used as a refrigerator, in which case the primary objective is Q L , the heat trans-
ferred to the refrigerant from the refrigerated space. It can also be used as a heating system (in
which case it is usually referred to as a heat pump), the objective being Q H , the heat transferred
from the refrigerant to the high-temperature body, which is the space to be heated. Q L is trans-
ferred to the refrigerant from the ground, the atmospheric air, or well water. The coefficient of

Before we state the second law, the concept of a thermal reservoir should be intro-
duced. A thermal reservoir is a body to which and from which heat can be transferred in-
definitely without change in the temperature of the reservoir. Thus, a thermal reservoir
always remains at constant temperature. The ocean and the atmosphere approach this def-
inition very closely. Frequently it will be useful to designate a high-temperature reservoir
and a low-temperature reservoir. Sometimes a reservoir from which heat is transferred is
called a source, and a reservoir to which heat is transferred is called as sink.
7.2 The Second Law of Thermodynamics
On the basis of the matter considered in the previous section, we are now ready to state
the second law of thermodynamics. There are two classical statements of the second law,
known as the Kelvin-Planck statement and the Clausius statement.
The Kelvin-Planck statement: It is impossible to construct a device that will operate
in a cycle and produce no effect other than the raising of a weight and the exchange
of heat with a single reservoir. See Fig. 7.8.
This statement ties in with our discussion of the heat engine. In effect, it states that
it is impossible to construct a heat engine that operates in a cycle, receives a given amount
of heat from a high-temperature body, and does an equal amount of work. The only alter-
FIGURE 7,8 The
Kelvin-Planck statement.

Impossible
native is that some heat must be transferred from the working fluid at a lower temperature
to a low-temperature body. Thus, work can be done by the transfer of heat only if there
are two temperature levels, and heat is transferred from the high-temperature body to the
heat engine and also from the heat engine to the low-temperature body. This implies that
it is impossible to build a heat engine that has a thermal efficiency of 100%.
The Clausius statement: It is impossible to construct a device that operates in a
cycle and produces no effect other than the transfer of heat from a cooler body to a
hotter body. See Fig. 7.9.
This statement is related to the refrigerator or heat pump. In effect, it states that it is
impossible to construct a refrigerator that operates without an input of work. This also im-
plies that the coefficient of performance is always less than infinity.
Three observations should be made about these two statements. The first observa-
tion is that both are negative statements. It is of course impossible to "prove" these nega-
tive statements. However, we can say that the second law of thermodynamics (like every
other law of nature) rests on experimental evidence. Every relevant experiment that has
been conducted either directly or indirectly verifies the second law, and no experiment has
ever been conducted that contradicts the second law. The basis of the second law is there-
fore experimental evidence.
A second observation is that these two statements of the second law are equivalent.
Two statements are equivalent if the truth of each statement implies the truth of the
other, or if the violation of each statement implies the violation of the other. That a viola-
tion of the Clausius statement implies a violation of the Kelvin-Planck statement may be
shown. The device at the left in Fig. 7. 1 is a refrigerator that requires no work and thus
violates the Clausius statement. Let an amount of heat Q L be transferred from the low-
temperature reservoir to this refrigerator, and let the same amount of heat Q L be trans-
ferred to the high-temperature reservoir. Let an amount of heat Q H that is greater than Q L
be transferred from the high-temperature reservoir to the heat engine, and let the engine
reject the amount of heat Q L as it does an amount of work IV, which equals Q H ~ Q L . Be-
cause there is no net heat transfer to the low-temperature reservoir, the low-temperature
reservoir, along with the heat engine and the refrigerator, can be considered together as a
device that operates in a cycle and produces no effect other than the raising of a weight
(work) and the exchange of heat with a single reservoir. Thus, a violation of the Clausius
statement implies a violation of the Kelvin-Planck statement. The complete equivalence

of these two statements is established when it is also shown that a violation of the
Kelvin-Planck statement implies a violation of the Clausius statement. This is left as an
exercise for the student.
The third observation is that frequently the second law of thermodynamics has
been stated as the impossibility of constructing a perpetual-motion machine of the sec-
ond kind. A perpetual-motion machine of the first kind would create work from noth-
ing or create mass or energy, thus violating the first law, A perpetual-motion machine
of the second kind would extract heat from a source and then convert this heat com-
pletely into other forms of energy, thus violating the second law. A perpetual-motion
machine of the third kind would have no friction, and thus would run indefinitely but
produce no work,
A heat engine that violated the second law could be made into a perpetual-motion
machine of the second kind by taking the following steps. Consider Fig. 7.11, which
might be the power plant of a ship. An amount of heat Q L is transferred from the ocean to
a high-temperature body by means of a heat pump. The work required is W, and the heat
transferred to the high-temperature body is Q H , Let the same amount of heat be trans-
ferred to a heat engine that violates the Kelvin-Planck statement of the second law and
does an amount of work W = Q H . Of this work an amount Q H — Q L is required to drive
the heat pump, leaving the net work (}V nei — Q L ) available for driving the ship. Thus, we

7.3 The Reversible Process
The question that can now logically be posed is this: If it is impossible to have a heat
engine of 100% efficiency, what is the maximum efficiency one can have? The first
step in the answer to this question is to define an ideal process, which is called a re-
versible process.
A reversible process for a system is defined as a process that once having taken
place can be reversed and in so doing leave no change in either system or surroundings.
Let us illustrate the significance of this definition for a gas contained in a cylinder
that is fitted with a piston. Consider first Fig. 7. 12, in which a gas, which we define as the
system, is restrained at high pressure by a piston that is secured by a pin. When the pin is
removed, the piston is raised and forced abruptly against the stops. Some work is done by
the system, since the piston has been raised a certain amount. Suppose we wish to restore
the system to its initial state. One way of doing this would be to exert a force on the piston
and thus compress the gas until the pin can be reinserted in the piston. Since the pressure
on the face of the piston is greater on the return stroke than on the initial stroke, the work
done on the gas in this reverse process is greater than the work done by the gas in the ini-
tial process. An amount of heat must be transferred from the gas during the reverse stroke
so that the system has the same internal energy as it had originally. Thus, the system is re-
stored to its initial state, but the surroundings have changed by virtue of the fact that work
was required to force the piston down and heat was transferred to the surroundings. The
initial process therefore is an irreversible one because it could not be reversed without
leaving a change in the surroundings.
In Fig. 7.13 let the gas in the cylinder comprise the system, and let the piston be
loaded with a number of weights. Let the weights be slid off horizontally one at a time, al-
lowing the gas to expand and do work in raising the weights that remain on the piston. As
the size of the weights is made smaller and their number is increased, we approach a
process that can be reversed, for at each level of the piston during the reverse process
there will be a small weight that is exactly at the level of the platform and thus can be
placed on the platform without requiring work. In the limit, therefore, as the weights be-
come very small, the reverse process can be accomplished in such a manner that both the

system and surroundings are in exactly the same state they were initially. Such a process
is a reversible process.
7.4 Factors that Mender processes
Irreversible
There are many factors that make processes irreversible. Four of those factors — friction,
unrestrained expansion, heat transfer through a finite temperature difference, and mixing
of two different substances — are considered in this section.
Friction
It is readily evident that friction makes a process irreversible, but a brief illustration may
amplify the point. Let a block and an inclined plane make up a system, as in Fig. 7.14, and
let the block be pulled up the inclined plane by weights that are lowered. A certain
amount of work is needed to do this. Some of this work is required to overcome the fric-
tion between the block and the plane, and some is required to increase the potential en-
ergy of the block. The block can be restored to its initial position by removing some of the
weights and thus allowing the block to slide back down the plane. Some heat transfer
from the system to the surroundings will no doubt be required to restore the block to its
initial temperature. Since the surroundings are not restored to their initial state at the con-
clusion of the reserve process, we conclude that friction has rendered the process irre-

versible. Another type of factional effect is that associated with the flow of viscous fluids
in pipes and passages and in the movement of bodies through viscous fluids.
Unrestrained Expansion
The classic example of an unrestrained expansion, as shown in Fig. 7.15, is a gas separated
from a vacuum by a membrane. Consider what happens when the membrane breaks and the
gas fills the entire vessel. It can be shown that this is an irreversible process by considering
what would he necessary to restore the system to its original state. The gas would have to be
compressed and heat transferred from the gas until its initial state is reached. Since the work
and heat transfer involve a change in the surroundings, the surroundings are not restored to
their initial state, indicating that the unrestrained expansion was an irreversible process. The
process described in Fig. 7.12 is also an example of an unrestrained expansion.
In the reversible expansion of a gas, there must be only an infinitesimal difference
between the force exerted by the gas and the restraining force, so that the rate at which the
boundary moves will be infinitesimal. In accordance with our previous definition, this is a
quasi-equihbrium process. However, actual systems have a finite difference in forces,
which causes a finite rate of movement of the boundary, and thus the processes are irre-
versible in some degree.
Heat Transfer through a Finite Temperature Difference
Consider as a system a high-temperature body and a low-temperature body, and let heat
be transferred from the high-temperature body to the low-temperature body. The only
way in which the system can be restored to its initial state is to provide refrigeration,
which requires work from the surroundings, and some heat transfer to the surroundings
will also be necessary. Because of the heat transfer and the work, the surroundings are not
restored to their original state, indicating that the process was irreversible.
An interesting question is now posed. Heat is defined as energy that is transferred
through a temperature difference. We have just shown that heat transfer through a temper-
ature difference is an irreversible process. Therefore, how can we have a reversible heat-
transfer process? A heat-transfer process approaches a reversible process as the
temperature difference between the two bodies approaches zero. Therefore, we define a
reversible heat-transfer process as one in which the heat is transferred through an infini-
tesimal temperature difference. We realize of course that to transfer a finite amount of
heat through an infinitesimal temperature difference would require an infinite amount of
time or infinite area. Therefore, all actual heat transfers are through a finite temperature
difference and hence are irreversible, with the greater the temperature difference, the
greater the irreversibility. We will find, however, that the concept of reversible heat trans-
fer is very useful in describing ideal processes.

Mixing of Two Different Substances
Figure 7.16 illustrates the process of mixing two different gases separated by a mem-
brane. When the membrane is broken, a homogeneous mixture of oxygen and nitrogen
fills the entire volume, This process will be considered in some detail in Chapter 12. We
can say here that this may be considered a special case of an unrestrained expansion, for
each gas undergoes an unrestrained expansion as it fills the entire volume. A certain
amount of work is necessary to separate these gases. Thus, an air separation plant such as
described in Chapter 1 requires an input of work to accomplish the separation.
Other Factors
A number of other factors make processes irreversible, but they will not be considered in
detail here. Hysteresis effects and the i 2 R loss encountered in electrical circuits are both fac-
tors that make processes irreversible. Ordinary combustion is also an irreversible process.
It is frequently advantageous to distinguish between internal and external irre-
versibility. Figure 7.17 shows two identical systems to which heat is transferred. Assum-
ing each system to be a pure substance, the temperature remains constant during the
heat-transfer process. In one system the heat is transferred from a reservoir at a tempera-
ture T + dT, and in the other the reservoir is at a much higher temperature, T + AT, than
the system. The first is a reversible heat-transfer process, and the second is an irreversible
heat-transfer process. However, as far as the system itself is concerned, it passes through
exactly the same states in both processes, which we assume are reversible. Thus, we can
say for the second system that the process is internally reversible but externally irre-
versible because the irreversibility occurs outside the system.
We should also note the general interrelation of reversibility, equilibrium, and time.
In a reversible process, the deviation from equilibrium is infinitesimal, and therefore it oc-

curs at an infinitesimal rate. Since it is desirable that actual processes proceed at a finite
rate, the deviation from equilibrium must be finite, and therefore the actual process is irre-
versible in some degree. The greater the deviation from equilibrium, the greater the irre-
versibility, and the more rapidly the process will occur. It should also be noted that the
quasi-equilibrium process, which was described in Chapter 2, is a reversible process, and
hereafter the term reversible process will be used.
7.5 THE CARNOT CYCLE
Having defined the reversible process and considered some factors that make processes ir-
reversible, let us again pose the question raised in Section 7.3. If the efficiency of all heat
engines is less than 100%, what is the most efficient cycle we can have? Let us answer
this question for a heat engine that receives heat from a high- temperature reservoir and re-
jects heat to a low-temperature reservoir. Since we are dealing with reservoirs, we recog-
nize that both the high temperature and the low temperature of the reservoirs are constant
and remain constant regardless of the amount of heat transferred.
Let us assume that this heat engine, which operates between the given high-
temperature and low-temperature reservoirs, does so in a cycle in which every process
is reversible. If every process is reversible, the cycle is also reversible; and if the cycle
is reversed, the heat engine becomes a refrigerator. In the next section we will show
that this is the most efficient cycle that can operate between two constant-temperature
reservoirs. It is called the Carnot cycle and is named after a French engineer, Nicolas
Leonard Sadi Carnot (1796^1832), who expressed the foundations of the second law
of thermodynamics in 1824.
We now turn our attention to the Carnot cycle. Figure 7.18 shows a power plant that
is similar in many respects to a simple steam power plant and, we assume, operates on the
Carnot cycle. Consider the working fluid to be a pure substance, such as steam. Heat is
transferred from the high-temperature reservoir to the water (steam) in the boiler. For this
FIGURE 7.18

Ql
Low-temperature reservoir
228 H Chapter Seven the second law of thermodynamics
process to be a reversible heat transfer, the temperature of the water (steam) must be only
infinitesimally lower than the temperature of the reservoir. This result also implies, since
the temperature of the reservoir remains constant, that the temperature of the water must
remain constant. Therefore, the first process in the Carnot cycle is a reversible isothermal
process in which heat is transferred from the high-temperature reservoir to the working
fluid. A change of phase from liquid to vapor at constant pressure is of course an isother-
mal process for a pure substance.
The next process occurs in the turbine without heat transfer and is therefore adiabatic.
Since all processes in the Camot cycle are reversible, this must be a reversible adiabatic
process, during which the temperature of the working fluid decreases from the temperature
of the high-temperature reservoir to the temperature of the low-temperature reservoir.
In the next process heat is rejected from the working fluid to the low-temperature
reservoir. This must be a reversible isothermal process in which the temperature of the
working fluid is infinitesimally higher than that of the low-temperature reservoir. During
this isothermal process some of the steam is condensed.
The final process, which completes the cycle, is a reversible adiabatic process in
which the temperature of the working fluid increases from the low temperature to the high
temperature. If this were to be done with water (steam) as the working fluid, a mixture of
liquid and vapor would have to be taken from the condenser and compressed. (This would
be very inconvenient in practice, and therefore in all power plants the working fluid is
completely condensed in the condenser. The pump handles only the liquid phase.)
Sine the Carnot heat engine cycle is reversible, every process could be reversed, in
which case it would become a refrigerator. The refrigerator is shown by the dotted lines
and parentheses in Fig. 7.18. The temperature of the working fluid in the evaporator
would be infinitesimally lower than the temperature of the low-temperature reservoir, and
in the condenser it is infinitesimally higher than that of the high-temperature reservoir.
It should be emphasized that the Carnot cycle can, in principle, be executed in many
different ways. Many different working substances can be used, such as a gas or a thermo-
electric device such as described in Chapter 1. There are also various possible arrange-
ments of machinery. For example, a Carnot cycle can be devised that takes place entirely
within a cylinder, using a gas as a working substance, as shown in Fig. 7.19.
The important point to be made here is that the Camot cycle, regardless of what the
working substance may be, always has the same four basic processes. These processes are;
1. A reversible isothermal process in which heat is transferred to or from the high-
temperature reservoir.
2. A reversible adiabatic process in which the temperature of the working fluid de-
creases from the high temperature to the low temperature.

temperature reservoir.

creases from the low temperature to the high temperature.
7.6 TWO PROPOSITIONS REGARDING THE
EFFICIENCY OF A CARNOT CYCLE
There are two important propositions regarding the efficiency of a Carnot cycle.
First Proposition
It is impossible to construct an engine that operates between two given reservoirs and is
more efficient than a reversible engine operating between the same two reservoirs.
The proof of this statement is accomplished through a "thought experiment." An
initial assumption is made, and it is then shown that this assumption leads to impossible
conclusions. The only possible conclusion is that the initial assumption was incorrect.
Let us assume that there is an irreversible engine operating between two given reser-
voirs that has a greater efficiency than a reversible engine operating between the same two
reservoirs. Let the heat transfer to the irreversible engine be Q H> the heat rejected be Q' L , and
the work be W m (which equals Q H - Q' L ) as shown in Fig. 7.20. Let the reversible engine
operate as a refrigerator (this is possible since it is reversible). Finally, let the heat transfer
with the low-temperature reservoir be Q L , the heat transfer with the high-temperature reser-
voir be Q H , and the work required be (which equals Q H — Q L ).
Since the initial assumption was that the irreversible engine is more efficient, it fol-
lows (because Q H is the same for both engines) that Q' L < Q L and W m > W^. Now the ir-
reversible engine can drive the reversible engine and still deliver the net work W ntt , which
equals lV iE — = Q L — Q' L . If we consider the two engines and the high-temperature
reservoir as a system, as indicated in Fig. 7.20, we have a system that operates in a cycle,
exchanges heat with a single reservoir, and does a certain amount of work. However, this

would constitute a violation of the second law, and we conclude that our initial assump-
tion (that the irreversible engine is more efficient than a reversible engine) is incorrect.
Therefore, we cannot have an irreversible engine that is more efficient than a reversible
engine operating between the same two reservoirs.
Second Proposition
All engines that operate on the Camot cycle between two given constant-temperature
reservoirs have the same efficiency. The proof of this proposition is similar to the proof
just outlined, which assumes that there is one Carnot cycle that is more efficient than an-
other Carnot cycle operating between the same temperature reservoirs. Let the Carnot
cycle with the higher efficiency replace the irreversible cycle of the previous argument,
and let the Carnot cycle with the lower efficiency operate as the refrigerator. The proof
proceeds with the same line of reasoning as in the first proposition. The details are left as
an exercise for the student.
7,7 The Thermodynamic
Temperature Scale
In discussing the matter of temperature in Chapter 2, we pointed out that the zeroth law of
thermodynamics provides a basis for temperature measurement, but that a temperature
scale must be defined in terms of a particular thermometer substance and device, A tem-
perature scale that is independent of any particular substance, which might be called an
absolute temperature scale, would be most desirable. In the last paragraph we noted that
the efficiency of a Carnot cycle is independent of the working substance and depends only
on the temperature. This fact provides the basis for such an absolute temperature scale,
which we call the thermodynamic scale.
The concept of this temperature scale may be developed with the help of Fig. 7.21,
which shows three reservoirs and three engines that operate on the Carnot cycle. T } is
the highest temperature, r 3 is the lowest temperature, and T 2 is an intermediate tempera-
ture, and the engines operate between the various reservoirs as indicated. Q l is the same

for both A and C and, since we are dealing with reversible cycles, Q 3 is the same for B
and C.
Since the efficiency of a Camot cycle is a function only of the temperature, we can
write
iJ^i = * ~ |r = 1 ~ Wl> Tid (73)
where tp designates a functional relation.
Let us apply this functional relation to the three Camot cycles of Fig. 7.21:

Note that the left side is a function of T x and T 3 (and not of T 2 \ and therefore the

fact we can conclude that the form of the function \p must be such that

Now there are several functional relations that will satisfy this equation. For the
thermodynamic scale of temperature, which was originally proposed by Lord Kelvin, the
selected relation is
232 II Chapter Seven The Second Law of thermodynamics
With absolute temperatures so defined, the efficiency of a Camot cycle may be expressed
in terms of the absolute temperatures.
This means that if the thermal efficiency of a Carnot cycle operating between two given
constant-temperature reservoirs is known, the ratio of the two absolute temperatures is
also known.
It should be noted that Eq. 7.7 gives us a ratio of absolute temperatures, but it does
not give us information about the magnitude of the degree. Let us first consider a qualita-
tive approach to this matter and then a more rigorous statement.
Suppose we had a heat engine operating on the Camot cycle that received heat at
the temperature of the steam point and rejected heat at the temperature of the ice point.
(Because a Camot cycle involves only reversible processes, it is impossible to construct
such a heat engine and perform the proposed experiment. However, we can follow the
reasoning as a "thought experiment" and gain additional understanding of the thermody-
namic temperature scale.) If the efficiency of such an engine could be measured, we
would find it to be 26.80%. Therefore, from Eq. 7.8,
T L Tfce point
rj A = 1 - jr = 1 ~ t " °' 2680

0.7320
This gives us one equation concerning the two unknowns T H and T L . The second
equation comes from an arbitrary decision regarding the magnitude of the degree on the
thermodynamic temperature scale. If we wish to have the magnitude of the degree on the
absolute scale correspond to the magnitude of the degree on the Celsius scale, we can
write
T - — T- =100
steam point J ice point 1XJV
Solving these two equations simultaneously, we find
^steam point 373.15 K, ^Icepoint — 273.15 K
It follows that
I( D C) + 273.15 = 7/(K)
The absolute scale Telated to the Fahrenheit scale is the Rankine scale, designated
by R. On both these scales there are 180 degrees between the ice point and the steam
point. Therefore, for a Camot cycle heat engine operating between the steam point and the
ice point, we would have the two relations
team point -^icepoint ' 180
[ ice point

Solving these two equations simultaneously, we find
repaint = 671.67 R, r iC£point = 491.67 R
THE IDEAL- GAS TEMPERATURE SCALE ffl 233
It follows that temperatures on the Fahrenheit and Rankine scales are related as
follows:
As already noted, the measurement of efficiencies of Camot cycles is, however, not
a practical way to approach the problem of temperature measurement on the thermody-
namic scale of temperature. The actual approach is based on the ideal-gas thermometer
and an assigned value for the triple point of water. At the tenth Conference on Weights
and Measures, which was held in 1954, the temperature of the triple point of water was
assigned the value 273.16 K. [The triple point of water is approximately O.Orc above the
ice point. The ice point is defined as the temperature of a mixture of ice and water at a
pressure of 1 arm (101.3 kPa) of air that is saturated with water vapor.] The ideal-gas ther-
mometer is discussed in the following section.
7.8 The Ideal-Gas Temperature Scale
In this section we reconsider in greater detail the ideal-gas temperature scale introduced in
Section 3.6. This scale is based on the observation that as the pressure of a real gas ap-
proaches zero, its equation of state approaches that of an ideal gas:
Pv = RT
It will be shown that the ideal-gas temperature scale satisfies the definition of thermody-
namic temperature given in the preceding section by Eq. 7.7, but first let us consider how
an ideal gas might be used to measure temperature in a constant- volume gas thermometer,
shown schematically in Fig. 7.22.
Let the gas bulb be placed in the location where the temperature is to be measured,
and let the mercury column be adjusted so that the level of mercury stands at the reference
mark A. Thus, the volume of the gas remains constant. Assume that the gas in the capil-
lary tube is at the same temperature as the gas in the bulb. Then the pressure of the gas,
which is indicated by the height L of the mercury column, is a measure of the temperature!

234 H chapter Seven the second law of thermodynamics
Let the pressure that is associated with the temperature of the triple point of water
(273.1 6 K) also be measured, and let us designate this pressure P t? . Then, from the defin-
ition of an ideal gas, any other temperature T could be deterrnined from a pressure mea-
surement P by the relation
From a practical point of view, we have the problem that no gas behaves exactly
like an ideal gas. However, we do know that as the pressure approaches zero, the behavior
of all gases approaches that of an ideal gas. Suppose then that a series of measurements is
made with varying amounts of gas in the gas bulb. This means that the pressure measured
at the triple point, and also the pressure at any other temperature, will vary. If the indi-
cated temperature T, (obtained by assuming that the gas is ideal) is plotted against the
pressure of gas with the bulb at the triple point of water, a curve like the one shown in
Fig. 7.23 is obtained. When this curve is extrapolated to zero pressure, the correct ideal-
gas temperature is obtained. Different curves might result from different gases, but they
would all indicate the same temperature at zero pressure.
We have outlined only the general features and principles for measuring tempera- .
ture on the ideal-gas scale of temperatures. Precision work in this field is difficult and la-
borious, and there are only a few laboratories in the world where such work is carried on.
The International Temperature Scale, which was mentioned in Chapter 2, closely approxi-
mates the thermodynamic temperature scale and is much easier to work with in actual
temperature measurement.
We now demonstrate that the ideal-gas temperature scale discussed earlier is, in
fact, identical to the thermodynamic temperature scale, which was defined in the discus-
sion of the Carnot cycle and the second law. Our objective can be achieved by using an
ideal gas as the working fluid for a Carnot-cycle heat engine and analyzing the four
processes that make up the cycle. The four state points, 1, 2, 3, and 4, and the four
processes are as shown in Fig. 7.24, For convenience, let us consider a unit mass of gas
inside the cylinder. Now for each of the four processes, the reversible work done at the
moving boundary is given by Eq. 4.2:
Sw = Pdv
Similarly, for each process the gas behavior is, from the ideal-gas relation, Eq. 3,5,

and the internal energy change, from Eq. 5.20, is
du = C c0 dT
Assuming no changes in kinetic or potential energies, the first law is, from Eq. 5.7 at unit
mass,
Substituting the three previous expressions into this equation, we have for each of the four
processes
The shape of the two isothermal processes shown in Fig. 7.24 is known, since Pv is
constant in each case. The process 1-2 is an expansion at T H , such that v 2 is larger than i? t .
Similarly, the process 3~4 is a compression at a lower temperature, T L , and v A is smaller
than v y The adiabatic process 2-3 is an expansion from T H to T L , with an increase in spe-
cific volume, while the adiabatic process 4-1 is a compression from T L to T H , with a de-
crease in specific volume. The area below each process line represents the work for that
process, as given by Eq. 4.2.
We now proceed to integrate Eq. 7.9 for each of the four processes that make up the
Camot cycle. For the isothermal heat addition process 1-2, we have

lows that a Camot cycle operating as a refrigerator or heat pump will have a coefficient of
performance expressed as

For all three "efficiencies" in Eqs. 7.8, 7.15, and 7.16, the first equality sign is the defini-
tion with the use of the energy equation and thus is always true. The second equality sign
is valid only if the cycle is reversible, that is, a Carnot cycle. Any real heat engine, refrig-
erator, or heat pump will be less efficient, such that

A final point needs to be made about the significance of absolute-zero temperature in
connection with the second law and the thermodynamic temperature scale. Consider a
Carnot-cycle heat engine that receives a given amount of heat from a given high-temperature
Ideal versus Real Machines H 237
reservoir. As the temperature at which heat is rejected from the cycle is lowered, the net
work output increases and the amount of heat rejected decreases. In the limit, the heat re-
jected is zero, and the temperature of the reservoir corresponding to this limit is absolute
zero.
Similarly, for a Carnot-cycle refrigerator, the amount of work required to produce a
given amount of refrigeration increases as the temperature of the refrigerated space de-
creases. Absolute zero represents the limiting temperature that can be achieved, and the
amount of work required to produce a finite amount of refrigeration approaches infinity as
the temperature at which refrigeration is provided approaches zero.
EXAMPLE 7.3 Let us consider the heat engine, shown schematically in Fig. 7.25, that receives a heat-
transfer rate of 1 MW at a high temperature of 550°C and rejects energy to the ambient
surroundings at 300 K. Work is produced at a rate of 450 kW. We would like to know
how much energy is discarded to the ambient surroundings and the engine efficiency
and compare both of these to a Carnot heat engine operating between the same two
reservoirs.
Solution
If we take the heat engine as a control volume, the energy equation gives
Qi. ■- Q H ~ W= 1000 - 450 = 550 kW
and from the definition of the efficiency
dermal = WQu = 450/1000 = 0.45
For the Carnot heat engine, the efficiency is given by the temperature of the reservoirs :
= 1-^=1-
300
= 0.635
T H 550 + 273
The rates of work and heat rejection become
W^ycimo&H = 0-635 X 1000 = 635 kW
Ql = Qh~W= 1000 - 635 = 365 kW

The actual heat engine thus has a lower efficiency than the Camot (ideal) heat engine,
with a value of 45% typical for a modem steam power plant. This also implies that the
actual engine rejects a larger amount of energy to the ambient surroundings (55%) com-
pared with the Carnot heat engine (36%).
Example 7.4
Solution
The coefficient of performance (COP) is
so the rate of work or power input will be
W= Q L /p = 4/27 = 0.15 kW
Since the power was estimated assuming a Carnot refrigerator, it is the smallest amount
possible. Recall also the expressions for heat-transfer rates in Chapter 4. If the refrigera-
tor should push 4.15 kW out to the atmosphere at 35°C, the high-temperature side of it
should be at a higher temperature, maybe 45°C, to have a reasonably small-sized heat
As one mode of operation of an air conditioner is the cooling of a room on a hot day, it
works as a refrigerator, shown in Fig. 7.26. A total of 4 kW should be removed from a
room at 24°C to the outside atmosphere at 35°C. We would like to estimate the magni-
tude of the required work. To do this we will not analyze the processes inside the refrig-
erator, which is deferred to Chapter U, but we can give a lower limit for the rate of
work assuming it is a Carnot-cycle refrigerator.

exchanger. As tt cools the room, a flow of air of less than, say, 18°C would be needed.
Redoing the COP with a high of 45°C and a low of 18°C gives 10.8, which is more real-
istic. A real refrigerator would operate with a COP of the order of 5 or less.
In the previous discussion and examples we considered the constant-temperature
energy reservoirs and used those temperatures to calculate the Carnot-cycle efficiency.
However, if we recall the expressions for the rate of heat transfer by conduction, convec-
tion, or radiation in Chapter 4, they can all be shown as
Q = CM (7.17)
The constant C depends on the mode of heat transfer as
lc4
Conduction: C = — Convection: C = hA
Ax
Radiation: C = eaA(T s 2 + Tl)(T s + T n )
For more complex situations with combined layers and modes, we also recover the form
in Eq. 7.17, but with a value of C that depends on the geometry, materials, and modes of
heat transfer. To have a heat transfer, we therefore must have a temperature difference so
that the working substance inside a cycle cannot attain the reservoir temperature unless
the area is infinitely large.
NUMMARY
The classical presentation of the second law of thermodynamics starts with the concept of
heat engines and refrigerators. A heat engine produces work from a heat transfer obtained
from a thermal reservoir, and its operation is limited by the Kelvin-Planck statement. Re-
frigerators are functionally the same as heat pumps, and they drive energy by heat transfer
from a colder environment to a hotter environment, something that will not happen by it-
self. The Clausius statement says in effect that the refrigerator or heat pump does need
work input to accomplish the task. To approach the limit of these cyclic devices, the idea
of reversible processes is discussed and further explained by the opposite, namely, irre-
versible processes and impossible machines. A perpetual motion machine of the first kind
violates the first law (energy equation), and a perpetual machine of the second kind vio-
lates the second law of thermodynamics.
The limitations for the performance of heat engines (thermal efficiency) and heat
pumps or refrigerators (coefficient of performance or COP) are expressed by the corre-
sponding Camot-cycie device. Two propositions about the Carnot cycle device are an-
other way of expressing the second law of thermodynamics instead of the statements of
Kelvin-Planck or Clausius. These propositions lead to the establishment of the thermody-
namic absolute temperature, done by Lord Kelvin, and the Camot-cycle efficiency. We
show this temperature to be the same as the ideal-gas temperature introduced in Chapter 3,

Entropy
Up to this point in our consideration of the second law of thermodynamics, we have dealt
only with thermodynamic cycles. Although this is a very important and useful approach,
we are often concerned with processes rather than cycles. Thus, we might be interested in
the second-law analysis of processes we encounter daily, such as the combustion process
in an automobile engine, the cooling of a cup of coffee, or the chemical processes that
take place in our bodies. It would also be beneficial to be able to deal with the second law
quantitatively as well as qualitatively.
In our consideration of the first law, we initially stated the law in terms of a cycle,
but we then defined a property, the internal energy, that enabled us to use the first law
quantitatively for processes. Similarly, we have stated the second law for a cycle, and we
now find that the second law leads to a property, entropy, that enables us to treat the sec-
ond law quantitatively for processes. Energy and entropy are both abstract concepts that
help to describe certain observations. As we noted in Chapter 2, thermodynamics can be
described as the science of energy and entropy. The significance of this statement will be-
come increasingly evident.
The fist step in our consideration of the property we call entropy is to establish the in-
equality of Clausius, which is
The inequality of Clausius is a corollary or a consequence of the second law of thermody-
namics. It will be demonstrated to be valid for all possible cycles, including both re-
versible and irreversible heat engines and refrigerators. Since any reversible cycle can be
represented by a series of Camot cycles, in this analysis we need consider only a Carnot
cycle that leads to the inequality of Clausius.
Consider first a reversible (Camot) heat engine cycle operating between reservoirs
at temperatures T H md T L , as shown in Fig. 8.1. For this cycle, the cyclic integral of the
heat transfer, f 8Q, is greater than zero.
Since T H and T L are constant, from the definition of the absolute temperature scale
and from the fact this is a reversible cycle, it follows that

Now consider an irreversible cyclic heat engine operating between the same T H

Finally, let an irreversible cyclic refrigerator operate between temperatures T H and

versible refrigerator, or

Since Qh~ Ql~ ft 7 for each cycle, it follows that

That is, the heat rejected by the irreversible refrigerator to the high-temperature reservoir
is greater than the heat rejected by the reversible refrigerator. Therefore, for the irre-
versible refrigerator,
j>SQ=~Q Iiiir +Q L <0
As we make this machine progressively more irreversible, but keep Q L , T H , and T L
constant, the cyclic integrals of BQ and BQ/Tboth become larger in the negative direction.
Consequently, a limiting case as the cyclic integral of BQ approaches zero does not exist
for the irreversible refrigerator.
Thus, for all irreversible refrigeration cycles,
BQ <0
Summarizing, we note that, in regard to the sign of f BQ, we have considered all
possible reversible cycles (i.e., $ BQ ^ 0), and for each of these reversible cycles
We have also considered all possible irreversible cycles for the sign of f BQ (that is,
§ 8Q ^ 0), and for all these irreversible cycles
f*<0
Thus, for all cycles we can write
^f^O (8.1)
where the equality holds for reversible cycles and the inequality for irreversible cycles.
This relation, Eq. 8.1, is known as the inequality of Clausius.
The significance of the inequality of Clausius may be illustrated by considering the
simple steam power plant cycle shown in Fig. 8.3. This cycle is slightly different from the
usual cycle for steam power plants in that the pump handles a mixture of liquid and vapor
in such proportions that saturated liquid leaves the pump and enters the boiler. Suppose
that someone reports that the pressure and quality at various points in the cycle are as
given in Fig. 8.3. Does this cycle satisfy the inequality of Clausius?
Heat is transferred in two places, the boiler and the condenser. Therefore,

Thus, this cycle satisfies the inequality of Clausius, which is equivalent to saying that it
does not violate the second law of thermodynamics.
8.2 Entropy— A Property of a System
By applying Eq. 8.1 and Fig. 8.4, we can demonstrate that the second law of thermo-
dynamics leads to a property of a system that we call entropy. Let a system (control mass)
•undergo a reversible process from state 1 to state 2 along a path A, and let the cycle be
completed along path 5, which is also reversible.
Because this is a reversible cycle, we can write
Now consider another reversible cycle, which proceeds first along path C and is then
completed along path B. For this cycle we can write
Subtracting the second equation from the first, we have
256 B Chapter eight ErfraoPY
FIGURE 8.4 Two

demonstrating the fact
that entropy is a property
of a substance.
Since the f 8Q/T is the same for all reversible paths between states 1 and 2, we conclude
that this quantity is independent of the path and it is a function of the end states only; it is
therefore a property. This property is called entropy and is designated S. It follows that
entropy may be defined as a property of a substance in accordance with the relation
(8.2)
Entropy is an extensive property, and the entropy per unit mass is designated s. It is
important to note that entropy is defined here in terms of a reversible process.
The change in the entropy of a system as it undergoes a change of state may be
found by integrating Eq. 8.2. Thus,
(8.3)
To perform this integration, we must know the relation between T and Q, and illustrations
will be given subsequently. The important point is that since entropy is a property, the
change in the entropy of a substance in going from one state to another is the same for all
processes, both reversible and irreversible, between these two states. Equation 8.3 enables
us to find the change in entropy only along a reversible path. However, once the change
has been evaluated, this value is the magnitude of the entropy change for all processes be-
tween these two states.
Equation 8.3 enables us to calculate changes of entropy, but it tells us nothing about
absolute values of entropy. From the third law of thermodynamics, which is based on ob-
servations of low-temperature chemical reactions, it is concluded that the entropy of all
pure substances (in the appropriate structural form) can be assigned the absolute value of
zero at the absolute zero of temperature. It also follows from the subject of statistical ther-
modynamics that all pure substances in the (hypothetical) ideal-gas state at absolute zero
temperature have zero entropy.
However, when there is no change of composition, as would occur in a chemical re-
action, for example, it is quite adequate to give values of entropy relative to some arbitrar-
ily selected reference state, such as was done earlier when tabulating values of internal
energy and enthalpy. In each case, whatever reference value is chosen, it will cancel out
when the change of property is calculated between any two states. This is the procedure
followed with the thermodynamic tables to be discussed in the following section.
A word should be added here regarding the role of T as an integrating factor. We noted
in Chapter 4 that Q is a path function, and therefore 8Q in an inexact differential. However,
since (8QfT)^ is a thermodynamic property, it is an exact differential. From a mathematical
The Entropy of a pure Substance H 257
perspective, we note that an inexact differential may be converted to an exact differential by
the introduction of an integrating factor. Therefore, IIT serves as the integrating factor in
converting the inexact differential SQ to the exact differential SQ/T for a reversible process.
8.3 The Entropy of a Pure substance
Entropy is an extensive property of a system. Values of specific entropy (entropy per unit
mass) are given in tables of thermodynamic properties in the same manner as specific volume
and specific enthalpy. The units of specific entropy in the steam tables, refrigerant tables, and
ammonia tables are kJ/kg K, and the values are given relative to an arbitrary reference state.
In the steam tables the entropy of saturated liquid at 0.01°C is given the value of zero. For
many refrigerants, the entropy of saturated liquid at -40°C is assigned the value of zero.
In general, we use the term entropy to refer to both total entropy and entropy per
unit mass, since the context or appropriate symbol will clearly indicate the precise mean-
ing of the term.
In the saturation region the entropy may be calculated using the quality. The rela-
tions are similar to those for specific volume, internal energy and enthalpy.
s = (1 — x)Sf+ xs s
s =s f +xs /jl (8.4)
The entropy of a compressed liquid is tabulated in the same manner as the other
properties. These properties are primarily a function of the temperature and are not greatly
different from those for saturated liquid at the same temperature. Table 4 of the steam ta-
bles, which is -summarized in Table B. 1.4, give the entropy of compressed liquid water in
the same manner as for other properties.
The thennodynamic properties of a substance are often shown on a temperature-
entropy diagram and on an enthalpy-entropy diagram, which is also called a Moltier
diagram, after Richard Mollier (1863-1935) of Germany. Figures 8.5 and 8.6 show the

essential elements of temperature-entropy and enthalpy-entropy diagrams for steam. The
general features of such diagrams are the same for all pure substances. A more complete
temperature-entropy diagram for steam is shown in Fig. E.l in Appendix E.
These diagrams are valuable both because they present thermodynamic data and be-
cause they enable us to visualize the changes of state that occur in various processes. As
our study progresses, the student should acquire facility in visualizing thermodynamic
processes on these diagrams. The temperature-entropy diagram is particularly useful for
this purpose.
For most substances the difference in the entropy of a compressed liquid and a satu-
rated liquid at the same temperature is so small that a process in which liquid is heated at
constant pressure nearly coincides with the saturated-liquid line until the saturation temper-
ature is reached (Fig. 8.7). Thus, if water at 10 MPa is heated from 0°C to the saturation
temperature, it would be shown by line ABD, which coincides with the saturated-liquid line.
8.4 ENTROPY CHANGE IN
REVERSIBLE PROCESSES
Having established that entropy is a thermodynamic property of a system, we now
consider its significance in various processes. In this section we will limit ourselves to
systems that undergo reversible processes and consider the Carnot cycle, reversible heat-
transfer processes, and reversible adiabatic processes.
Let the working fluid of a heat engine operating on the Carnot cycle make up the
system. The first process is the isothermal transfer of heat to the working fluid from the
high- temperature reservoir. For this process we can mite
*- s '-/'(t)„
Since this is a reversible process in which the temperature of the working fluid remains
constant, the equation can be integrated to give
This process is shown in Fig. 8.8a, and the area under line 1-2, area 1-2-&-A-1, repre-
sents the heat transferred to the working fluid during the process.

The second process of a Carnot cycle is a reversible adiabatic one. From the defini-
tion of entropy,
it is evident that the entropy remains constant in a reversible adiabatic process. A con-
stant-entropy process is called an isentropic process. Line 2-3 represents this process, and
this process is concluded at state 3 when the temperature of the working fluid reaches T L .
The third process is the reversible isothermal process in which heat is transferred
from the working fluid to the low-temperature reservoir. For this process we can write
Because during this process the heat transfer is negative (in regard to the working fluid),
the entropy of the working fluid decreases. Moreover, because the final process 4-1,
which completes the cycle, is a reversible adiabatic process (and therefore isentropic), it is
evident that the entropy decrease in process 3-4 must exactly equal the entropy increase
in process 1-2. The area under line 3-4, area 3-4-0-6-3, represents the heat transferred
from the working fluid to the low-temperature reservoir.
Since the net work of the cycle is equal to the net heat transfer, then area 1-2-3-4-1
must represent the net work of the cycle. The efficiency of the cycle may also be ex-
pressed in terms of areas:
= Hj* = area 1-2-3-4-1
Vm Q H area 1-2-fr-o-I
Some statements made earlier about efficiencies may now be understood graphically. For
example, increasing T H while T L remains constant increases the efficiency. Decreasing T L
as T H remains constant increases the efficiency. It is also evident that the efficiency ap-
proaches 100% as the absolute temperature at which heat is rejected approaches zero.
If the cycle is reversed, we have a refrigerator or heat pump. The Carnot cycle for a
refrigerator is shown in Fig. 8.86. Notice that the entropy of the working fluid increases at
T Li since heat is transferred to the working fluid at T L . The entropy decreases at T H be-
cause of heat transfer from the working fluid.
Let us next consider reversible heat-transfer processes. Actually, we are concerned
here with processes that are internally reversible, that is, processes that have no irreversibil-
ities within the boundary of the system. For such processes the heat transfer to or from a
system can be shown as an area on a temperature-entropy diagram. For example, consider
the change of state from saturated liquid to saturated vapor at constant pressure. This
process would correspond to the process 1-2 on the T-s diagram of Fig. 8.9 (note that ab-
solute temperature is required here), -and the area 1-2-6-a-l represents the heat transfer.
Since this is a constant-pressure process, the heat transfer per unit mass is equal to h /g . Thus,
s,-s -s - 1 ( 2 ( SQ ) - 1 [\n-& h *
This relation gives a clue about how s fg is calculated for tabulation in tables of thermody-
namic properties. For example, consider steam at 10 MPa. From the steam tables we have
h fs = 1317.1 kJ/kg
T = 311.06 + 273.15 = 584.21 K

This is the value listed for s fg in the steam tables.
If heat is transferred to the saturated vapor at constant pressure, the steam is super-
heated along line 2-3. For this process we can write
Since T is not constant, this equation cannot be integrated unless we know a relation be-
tween temperature and entropy. However, we do realize that the area under line 2-3, area
2~3~c~b~2 i represents j\T ds and therefore represents the heat transferred during thisre-
versible process.
The important conclusion to draw here is that for processes that are internally re-
versible, the area underneath the process line on a temperature-entropy diagram repre-
sents the quantity of heat transferred. This is not true for irreversible processes, as will be
demonstrated later.
EXAMPLE 8.1 Consider a Carnot-cycle heat pump with R-134a as the working fluid. Heat is absorbed
into the R-134a at 0°C, during which, process it changes from a two-phase state to satu-
rated vapor. The heat is rejected from the R-134a at 60°C so that it ends up as saturated
liquid. Find the pressure after compression, before the heat rejection process, and deter-
mine the coefficient of performance for the cycle.
From the definition of the Camot cycle we have two constant-temperature (isothermal)
processes that involve heat transfer and two adiabatic processes in which the tempera-
ture changes. The variation in s follows from Eq. 8.2

this process is very difficult to accomplish in a real device, no heat pump or refrigerator

8.5 The thermodynamic
Property relation
At this point we derive two important thermodynamic relations for a simple compressible
substance. These relations are
TdS = dU+ PdV
TdS = dH- VdP
The first of these relations can be derived by considering a simple compressible
substance in the absence of motion or gravitational effects. The first law for a change of
state under these conditions can be written
8Q = dU+8W
The equations we are deriving here deal first with the changes of state in which the
state of the substance can ,be identified at all times. Thus, we must consider a quasi-equi-
librium process or, to use the term introduced in the last chapter, a reversible process. For
a reversible process of a simple compressible substance, we can write
8Q = TdS and 8W = P dV
Substituting these relations into the first-law equation, we have
TdS = dU+ PdV (8.5)
which is the first equation we set out to derive. Note that this equation was derived by as-
suming a reversible process. This equation can therefore be integrated for any reversible
process, for during such a process the state of the substance can be identified at any point
264 B Chapter Eight Eotropy
during the process. We also note that Eq. 8.5 deals only with properties. Suppose we have
an irreversible process taking place between the given initial and final states. The proper-
ties of a substance depend only on the state, and therefore the changes in the properties
during a given change of state are the same for an irreversible process as for a reversible
process. Therefore, Eq, 8.5 is often applied to an irreversible process between two given
states, but the integration of Eq. 8.5 is performed along a reversible path between the
same two states.
Since enthalpy is defined as
H=U + PV
it follows that
dH=dU+ PdV + VdP
Substituting this relation into Eq. 8.5, we have
TdS = dH~VdP (8.6)
which is the second relation that we set out to derive. These two expressions, Eqs. 8.5 and
8.6, are two forms of the thermodynamic property relation and are frequently called Gibbs
equations.
These equations can also be written for a unit mass,
Tds = du + Pdo (8.7)
Tds = dh~v dP (8.8)
The Gibbs equations will be used extensively in certain subsequent sections of this book.
If we consider substances of fixed composition other than a simple compressible
substance, we can write "T dS" equations other than those just given for a simple com-
pressible substance. In Eq. 4.15 we noted that for a reversible process we can write the
following expression for work:
bW=PdV-$dL -3 > dA~%dZ+--<
It follows that a more general expression for the thermodynamic property relation would be
TdS = dU+PdV-VdL-&dA-%dZ + --- (8.9)
8.6 entropy change of a control mass
During an irreversible process
Consider a control mass that undergoes the cycles shown in Fig. 8.12. The cycle made up
of the reversible processes A and B is a reversible cycle. Therefore, we can write
The cycle made of the irreversible process C and the reversible process B is an irre-
versible cycle. Therefore, for this cycle the inequality of Clausius may be applied, giving
the result

FIGURE 8.12

Subtracting the second equation from the first and rearranging, we have
/,m>/,m
Since path A is reversible, and since entropy is a property,
Therefore,
As path C was arbitrary, the general result is
s 7 -s t >
(8.10)
In these equations the equality holds for a reversible process and the inequality for an irre-
versible process.
This is one of the most important equations of thermodynamics. It is used to de-
velop a number of concepts and definitions. In essence, this equation states the influence
of irreversibility on the entropy of a control mass. Thus, if an amount of heat SQ is trans-
ferred to a control mass at temperature T in a reversible process, the change of entropy is
given by the relation
dS
If any irreversible effects occur while the amount of heat SQ is transferred to the control
mass at temperature T, however, the change of entropy will be greater than for the re-
versible process. We would then write
dS>
SQ
Equation 8.10 holds when 8Q - 0, when SQ < 0, and when SQ > 0. If SQ is negative,
the entropy will tend to decrease as a result of the heat transfer. However, the influence of
266 II Chapter eight entropy
irreversibilities is still to increase the entropy of the mass, and from the absolute numeri-
cal perspective we can still write for 8Q:
8.7 Entropy Generation
The conclusion from the previous considerations is that the entropy change for an irre-
versible process is larger than the change in a reversible process for the same 8Q and T,
This can be written out in a common form as an equality
dS = ^f + 8S gia (8.11)
provided the last term is positive,
SS E ^Q (8.12)
The amount of entropy, SS giai is the entropy generation in the process due to irreversibil-
ities occurring inside the system, a control mass for now but later extended to the more
general control volume. This internal generation can be caused by the processes men-
tioned in Section 7.4, such as friction, unrestrained expansions, and the internal transfer
of energy (redistribution) over a finite temperature difference. In addition to this internal
entropy generation, external irreversibilities are possible by heat transfer over finite
temperature differences as the 8Q is transferred from a reservoir or by the mechanical
transfer of work.
Equation 8,12 is then valid with the equal sign for a reversible process and the
greater than sign for an irreversible process. Since the entropy generation is always posi-
tive and the smallest in a reversible process, namely zero, we may deduce some limits for
the heat transfer and work terms.
Consider a reversible process, for which the entropy generation is zero, and the heat
transfer and work terms therefore are
8Q-=TdS and SW=PdV
For an irreversible process with a nonzero entropy generation, the heat transfer from Eq.
8.11 becomes
8Q ilt =TdS-T8S gea
and thus is smaller than that for the reversible case for the same change of state, dS. we
also note that for the irreversible process, the work is no longer equal to P dV but is
smaller. Furthermore, since the first law is
and the property relation is valid,
TdS = dU + PdV
it is found that
8W in = PdV~ T8S^
(8.13)
Entropy Generation M 267
showing that the work is reduced by an amount proportional to the entropy generation.
For this reason the term TSS sea is often called "lost work," although it is not a real work
or energy quantity lost but rather a lost opportunity to extract work.
Equation 8.11 can be integrated between initial and final states to
Thus, we have an expression for the change of entropy for an irreversible process as an
equality, whereas in the last section we had an inequality. In the limit of a reversible
process, with a zero-entropy generation, the change in S expressed in Eq. 8.14 becomes
identical toEq. 8.10 as the equal sign applies and the work term becomes fPdF. Equation
8.14 is now the entropy balance equation for a control mass in the same form as the en-
ergy equation in Eq. 5.5, and it could include several subsystems. The equation can also
be written in the general form
expressing that we can generate but not destroy entropy. This is in contrast to energy
which we can neither generate nor destroy-
Some important conclusions can be drawn from Eqs. 8.11 to 8.14. First, there are
two ways in which the entropy of a system can be increased — by transferring heat to it
and by having an irreversible process. Since the entropy generation cannot be less than
zero, there is only one way in which the entropy of a system can be decreased, and that is
to transfer heat from the system. These changes are illustrated in a T-s diagram in Fig.
8.13 showing the halfplane into which the state moves due to a heat transfer or an entropy
generation.
Second, as we have already noted for an adiabattc process, 8Q = 0, and therefore
the increase in entropy is always associated with the irreversibilities.
Finally, the presence of irreversibilities will cause the work to be smaller than the
reversible work. This means less work out in an expansion process and more work into
the control mass (S W < 0) in a compression process.
One other point concerning the representation of irreversible processes on P-V and
TS diagrams should be made. The work for an irreversible process is not equal to jP dV,
and the heat transfer is not equal to fT dS. Therefore, the area underneath the path does
not represent work and heat on the P-Kand T-S diagrams, respectively. In fact, in many
situations we are not certain of the exact state through which a system passes when it un-
dergoes an irreversible process. For this reason it is advantageous to show irreversible
processes as dashed lines and reversible processes as solid lines. Thus, the area under-
neath the dashed line will never represent work or heat. Figure 8.14a shows an irre-
versible process, and, because the heat transfer and work for this process are zero, the area
underneath the dashed line has no significance. Figure S.14& shows the reversible process,

8.8 PRINCIPLE OF THE INCREASE OF ENTROPY
In the previous section, we considered irreversible processes in which the irreversibilities
occurred inside the system or control mass. We also found that the entropy change of a
control mass could be either positive or negative, since entropy can be increased by inter-
nal entropy generation and either increased or decreased by heat transfer, depending on
the direction of that transfer. In this section, we examine the effect of heat transfer on the
change of state in the surroundings, as well as on the control mass itself.
Consider the process shown in Fig. 8.15 in which a quantity of heat SQ is trans-
ferred from the surroundings at temperature r to the control mass at temperature T. Let
the work done during this process be BW. For this process we can apply Eq. 8,10 to the
control mass and write
SQ

For the surroundings at r , SQ is negative, and we assume a reversible heat extraction so

Principle of the increase of Entropy H 269
Since T > T, the quantity [(1/7) - (1/T )] is positive, and we conclude that
dS Mt = dS^ + dSnn s
If T > T 0i the heat transfer is from the control mass to the surroundings, and both SQ and
the quantity [(VT) - (1/T )] are negative, thus yielding the same result.
It should be noted that the right-hand side of Eq. 8.15 represents an external entropy
generation due to heat transfer through a finite temperature difference. To amplify this
point, take as a control mass the system that connects the surroundings at T with the pre-
vious control mass at T, which typically is the walls. This mass does not experience any
change of state, yet heat transfer causes fluxes of entropy to flow in and out in an irre-
versible process. For this mass, Eq. 8.11 gives
and we see that the difference in the two SQ/T terms (fluxes of S) is the entropy generated
in this control mass.
This is also precisely the location in space where the heat transfer takes place over the fi-
nite temperature difference T - T, This term is always positive (or zero for an adiabatic
process), but as the temperature difference is made to approach zero, this term also ap-
proaches zero.
There could also be additional entropy-generation terms in the surroundings of the
types discussed in the previous section, if those factors were also present in the surround-
ings, and those will be positive, as well. Thus, we conclude that the net entropy change is
the sum of a number of terms, each of which is positive, due to a specific cause of irre-
versible entropy generation, such that the net entropy change could also be termed the
total entropy generation:
dS aet = dS^ + dS su „ = 2 SS gin > (8.16)
where the equality holds for reversible processes and the inequality for irreversible
processes. This is a very important equation, not only for thermodynamics but also for
philosophical thought. This equation is referred to as the principle of the increase of en-
tropy. The great significance is that the only processes that can take place are those in
which the net change in entropy of the control mass plus its surroundings increases (or in
the limit, remains constant). The reverse process, in which both the control mass and sur-
roundings are returned to their .original state, can never be made to occur. In other words,
Eq. 8.16 dictates the single direction in which any process can proceed. Thus, the principle
of the increase of entropy can be considered a quantitative general statement of the second
law from the macroscopic point of view and applies to the combustion of fuel in our auto-
mobile engines, the cooling of our coffee, and the processes that take place in our body.
Sometimes this principle of the increase of entropy is stated in terms of an isolated
system, one in which there is no interaction between the system and its surroundings.
Then there is no change in the surroundings, and we then conclude that
isolated system = ^gen, system — (8-17)
That is, in an isolated system, the only processes that can occur are those that have an as-
sociated increase in entropy.

270 1 CHAPTER EIGHT ENTROPY
The development of Eq. 8.16 as the principle of the increase of entropy was made
for an infinitesimal change of state. When we wish to test a claimed process to see
whether it satisfies the second law of thermodynamics, it will necessarily be for a finite
change of state. Consider a control mass undergoing a process from initial state 1 to final
state 2, with an associated heat transfer l Q 2i which may be known or calculated from the
first law. The heat transfer is to or from a reservoir at temperature T . For this process,
A^cm. ~ $2 ~~ $U AS suir —

and the net entropy change as calculated from Eq. 8.18 must be greater than zero (irre-
versible process), or in the limit be equal to zero (completely reversible process, internally
and externally). This type of calculation is illustrated in the following example.
EXAMPLE 8,3 Suppose that 1 kg of saturated water vapor at 100°C is condensed to a saturated liquid at
100°C in a constant-pressure process by heat transfer to the surrounding air, which is at
25°C. What is the net increase in entropy of the water plus surroundings?
Solution
For the control mass (water), from the steam tables, we obtain
AS cm = _ mjj6 = -i x 6.0480 = -6.0480 kJ/K
Concerning the surroundings, we have
fios—d ^ = mh& = 1 X 2257 -° = 2257 W
AS net = AS cnL + AS surt = -6.0480 + 7.5700 = 1.5220 kJ/K
This increase in entropy is in accordance with the principle of the increase of entropy
and tells us, as does our experience, that this process can take place.
It is interesting to note how this heat transfer from the water to the surroundings
might have taken place reversibly. Suppose that an engine operating on the Carnot cycle
received heat from the water and rejected heat to the surroundings, as shown in Fig.
8.16. The decrease in the entropy of the water is equal to the increase in the entropy of
the surroundings.

Since this is a reversible cycle, the engine could be reversed and operated as a heat
pump. For this cycle the work input to the heat pump would be 453.8 kJ.

8.9 Entropy Change of a Solid or Liquid
In Section 5.6 we considered the calculation of the internal energy and enthalpy changes
with temperature for solids and liquids and found that, in general, it is possible to express
both in terms of the specific heat, in the simple manner of Eq. 5.17, and in most instances
in the integrated form of Eq. 5.18. We can now use this result and the thermodynamic
property relation, Eq. 8.7, to calculate the entropy change for a solid or liquid. Note that
for such a phase the specific volume term in Eq. 8.7 is very small, so that substituting Eq.
5.17 yields
ds^^dT (8.19)
Now, as was mentioned in Section 5.6, for many processes involving a solid or liquid, we
may assume that the specific heat remains constant, in which case Eq. 8.19 can be inte-
grated. The result is
5 2 -5, = Cln^ (8.20)
If the specific heat is not constant, then commonly C is known as a function of T, in which
case Eq. 8.19 can also be integrated to find the entropy change. Equation 8.20 illustrates
what happens in a reversible (ds m = 0) adiabatic (dq = 0) process, which therefore is
isentropic. In this process, the approximation of constant u leads to constant temperature,
which explains why pumping liquid does not change the temperature.
EXAMPLE 8.4 One kilogram of liquid water is heated from 20°C to 90°C. Calculate the entropy change,
assuming constant specific heat, and compare the result with that found when using the

Entropy Change of an Ideal Gas H 273
Solution '
For constant specific heat, from Eq. 8,20,
s 2 - si = 4.184 In (^j^J ^ 0.8958 kJ/kg K
Comparing this result with that obtained by using the steam tables, we have
s 2 ~si= s fWC - 5 /20 = c = 1.1925 - 0.2966

8,10 Entropy Change of an Ideal Gas
Two very useful equations for computing the entropy change of an ideal gas can be devel-
oped from Eq. 8.7 by substituting Eqs, 5.20 and 5.24;
For an ideal gas
Therefore,
Similarly,
For an ideal gas
Therefore,

du = C„o dT and ~ = §

Tds = dh-vdP
dh = C^dT and | = |
ds=C^-R^ (8.23)
s 2 ~ Sl = ^C^-Rln^ (8.24)
To integrate Eqs. 8.22 and 8.24, we must know the temperature dependence of the
specific heats. However, if we recall that their difference is always constant as expressed
by Eq. 5.27, we realize that we need to examine the temperature dependence of only one
of the specific heats.
274 H CHAPTER EIGHT ENTROPY
As in Section 5,7, let us consider the specific heat C p0 . Again, there are three possi-
bilities to examine, the simplest of which is the assumption of constant specific heat. In
this instance it is possible to integrate Eq. 8.24 directly to
s t - Sl = C^]n^~R\n^ (8.25)
Similarly, integrating Eq. 8.22 for constant specific heat, we have
s 2 -s i = C uQ \n^+R]n^ (8.26)
The second possibility for the specific heat is to use an analytical equation for
C p0 as a function of temperature, for example, one of those listed in Table A.6. The
third possibility is to integrate the results of the calculations of statistical thermody-
namics from reference temperature T to any other temperature T and define the stan-
dard entropy
4- ( T ^-dT (8.27)
This function can then be tabulated in the single-entry (temperature) ideal-gas table, as for
air in Table A.7 or for other gases in Table A.8. The entropy change between any two
states 1 and 2 is then given by
*2 = In (8.28)
As with the energy functions discussed in Section 5.7, the ideal-gas tables, Tables
A.7 and A. 8, would give the most accurate results, and the equations listed in Table A. 6
would give a close empirical approximation. Constant specific heat would be less accu-
rate, except for monatomic gases and for other gases below room temperature. Again, it
should be remembered that all these results are part of the ideal-gas model, which may or
may not be appropriate in any particular problem.
EXAMPLE 8.5 Consider Example 5.6, in which oxygen is heated from 300 to 1 500 K. Assume that dur-
ing this process the pressure dropped from 200 to 150 kPa. Calculate the change in en-
tropy per kilogram.
Solution
The most accurate answer for the entropy change, assuming ideal-gas behavior, would
be from the ideal-gas tables, Table A.8. This result is, using Eq. 8.28,
s 2 ~ Ji = (8.0649 - 6.4168) - 0.2598 In f |™
= 1.7228 kJ/kgK
ENTROPY CHANGE OF AN IDEAL GAS U 275
The empirical equation from Table A.6 should give a good approximation to this result.
Integrating Eq. 8,24, we have
which is within 1.0% of the previous value. For constant specific heat, using the value at
300 K from Table A .5, we have
which is too low by 9.5%. If, however, we assume that the specific heat is constant at its
value at 900 K, the average temperature, as in Example 5.6, then
which is high by 4.9%.
Calculate the change in entropy per kilogram as air is heated from 300 to 600 K while
pressure drops from 400 to 300 kPa. Assume:
1. Constant specific heat.
2. Variable specific heat.
Solution
1. From Table A.5 for air at 300 K,
1.7058 kJ/kgK

EXAMPLE 8.6E Calculate the change in entropy per pound as air is heated from 540 R to 1200 R while
pressure drops from 50 Ibf/in. 2 to 40 lbf/in. 2 . Assume:
1. Constant specific heat.
2. Variable specific heat.
Solution
1. From Table F.4 for air at 80 F,
- 0.24 Btu/lbm R
Therefore, using Eq. 8.25, we have
- Sl = 0.24 In - ^ In (^j = 0.2068 Btu/fbm R
j 2 - a, = 0.7963 - 0.6008 - in ^ = 0.2108 Btu/lbmR
Let us now consider the case of an ideal gas undergoing an isentropic process, a sit-
uation that is analyzed frequently. We conclude that Eq. 8.24 with the left side of the
equation equal to zero then expresses the relation between the pressure and temperature at
the initial and final states, with the specific relation depending on the nature of the specific
heat as a function of T. As was discussed following Eq. 8.24, there are three possibilities
to examine. Of these, the most accurate is the third, that is, the ideal-gas Tables A.7 or
A.8 and Eq. 8.28, with the integrated temperature function s° T denned by Eq. 8.27. The
following Example illustrates the procedure.

The first of the three possibilities, constant specific heat, is also worth analyzing as a
special case. In this instance, the result is Eq. 8.25 with the left side equal to zero, or

8.11 THE REVERSIBLE POLYTROPIC
PROCESS FOR AN IDEAL GAS
When a gas undergoes a reversible process in which there is heat transfer, the process fre-
quently takes place in such a manner that a plot of log P versus log V is a straight line, as
shown in Fig. 8.17. For such a process PV* is a constant.
A process having this relation between pressure and volume is called a polytropic
process An example is the expansion of the combustion gases in the cylinder of a water-
cooled reciprocating engine. If the pressure and volume are measured during the expan-
sion stroke of a polytropic process, as might be done with an engine indicator, and the

If n is a constant (which implies a straight line on the log P versus log rplot), this equa-
tion can be integrated to give the following relation:
PV = constant - P X V* X = P 2 V n 2 (8.36)
From this equation the following relations can be written for a polytropic process:

The reversible isothermal process for an ideal gas is of particular interest. In this
process
PV = constant = P X V X = P 2 V 2 (8.39)
The work done at the boundary of a simple compressible mass during a reversible isother-
mal process can be found by integrating the equation
X W % = j"' ' PdV
The integration is
X W 2 = f 2 P^F- constant f 2 ~r = ^i I^tt = W In tt ( 8 - 40 )
or
X W 2 = mRT\s& = mRT In (8.41)
Because there is no change in internal energy or enthalpy in an isothermal process,
the heat transfer is equal to the work (neglecting changes in kinetic and potential energy).
Therefore, we could have derived Eq. 8.40 by calculating the heat transfer.
For example, using Eq. 8.7, we have
282 W ChapterEight Entropy
But du = and Pv = constant = = P 2 v 2 , such that

which yields the same result as Eq. 8.40.
8.12 ENTROPY AS A RATE EQUATION
The second law of thermodynamics was used to write the balance of entropy in Eq. 8.11
for a variation and in Eq. 8.14 for a finite change. In some cases the equation is needed m
a rate form so that a given process can be tracked in time. The rate form is also the basis
for the development of the entropy balance equation in the general control volume analy-
sis for an unsteady situation.
Take the incremental change in S from Eq. 8.11 and divide by St. We get
dS = 1 ?f? , (8i4 2)
St T 8t St
For a given control volume we may have more than one source of heat transfer, each at a
certain surface temperature (semidistributed situation). Since we did not have to consider
the temperature at which the heat transfer crossed the control surface for the energy equa-
tion all the terms were added into a net heat transfer in a rate form m Eq. 5.3 1. Using this
and'a dot to indicate a rate, the final form for the entropy equation in the limit is
+ v C8 - 43)
expressing the rate of entropy change as due to the flux of entropy into the control mass
from heat transfer and an increase due to irreversible processes inside the control mass. It
only reversible processes take place inside the control volume, the rate of change of en-
tropy is determined by the rate of heat transfer divided by the temperature terms alone.
EXAMPLE 8.9 Consider an electric space heater that converts 1 kW of electric power into a heat flux of
1 kW delivered at 600 K from the hot wire surface. Let us look at the process of the energy
conversion from electricity to heat transfer and find the rate of total entropy generation.
Control mass: The electric heater wire.
State: Constant wire temperature 600 K.

Key Concepts and Formulas H 283
Notice that we neglected kinetic and potential energy changes in going from a rate of E
to a rate of U. Then the left-hand side is zero since it is steady state and the right-hand
side of the energy equation is electric work in minus the heat transfer out. For the en-
tropy equation the left-hand side is zero because of steady state and the right-hand side
has a flux of entropy out due to heat transfer, and entropy is generated in the wire.
Solution
We now get the entropy generation as
The inequality of Clausius and the property entropy (s) are modern statements of the sec-
ond law. The final statement of the second law is the entropy balance equation that in-
cludes generation of entropy. All the results that were derived from the classical
formulation of the second law in Chapter 7 can be re-derived with the entropy balance
equation applied to the cyclic devices. For all reversible processes, entropy generation is
zero and all real (irreversible) processes have a positive entropy generation. How large the
entropy generation is depends on the actual process.
Thermodynamic property relations for s are derived from consideration of a re-
versible process and leads to Gibbs relations. Changes in the property s are covered
through general tables, approximations for liquids and solids, as well as ideal gases.
Changes of entropy in various processes are examined in general together with special
cases of polytropic processes. Just as a reversible specific boundary work is the area
below the process curve in a P-v diagram, the reversible heat transfer is the area below
the process curve in a T-s diagram.

Second-Law Analysis for a
CONTROL VOLUME
In the preceding two chapters we discussed the second law of thermodynamics and the
thermodynamic property entropy. As was done with the first-law analysis, we now con-
sider the more general application of these concepts, the control volume analysis, and a
number of cases of special interest. We will also discuss usual definitions of thermody-
namic efficiencies.
9.1 The Second Law of thermodynamics
for a control volume
The second law of thermodynamics can be applied to a control volume by a procedure
similar to that used in Section 6.1, where the first law was developed for a control vol-
ume. We start with the second law expressed as a change of the entropy for a control
mass in a rate form from Eq. 8.43,
to which we now will add the contributions from the mass flow rates in and out of the
control volume, A simple example of such a situation is illustrated in Fig. 9.1. The flow
of mass does carry an amount of entropy, s, per unit mass flowing, but it does not give
rise to any other contributions. As a process may take place in the flow, entropy can be
generated, but this is attributed to the space it belongs to (i.e., either inside or outside of
the control volume).
The balance of entropy as an equation then states that the rate of change in total en-
tropy inside the control volume is equal to the net sum of fluxes across the control surface
plus the generation rate. That is,
rate of change = + in - out + generation
^ = 2 »A " 2 "A + 2 + 4™ ' (9-2)
These fluxes are mass flow rates carrying a level of entropy and the rate of heat transfer
that takes place at a certain temperature (the temperature right at the control surface). The

(9.3)
If the control volume has several different accumulation units with different fluid states
and processes occurring in them, we may have to sum the various contributions over the
different domains. If the heat transfer is distributed over the control surface, then an inte-
gral has to be done over the total surface area using the local temperature and rate of heat
transfer per unit area, QiA, as
Z T } T

(9.4)
These distributed cases typically require a much more detailed analysis, which is beyond
the scope of the current presentation of the second law.
The generation term(s) in Eq. 9.2 from a summation of individual positive intemal-
irreversibility entropy-generation terms in Eq. 9.3 is necessarily positive (or zero), such
that an inequality is often written as
dS r

(9.5)
Now the equality applies to internally reversible processes and the inequality to internally
irreversible processes. The form of the second law in Eq. 9.2 or 9.5 is general, such that
any particular case results in a form that is a subset (simplification) of this form. Exam-
ples of various classes of problems are illustrated in the following sections.

that were done for the first law of thermodynamics in Chapter 6.

9.2 The Steady-State process
and the Transient process
We now consider in turn the application of the second-law control volume equation, Eq.
9.2 or 9.5, to the two control volume model processes developed in Chapter 6.
Steady-State Process
For the steady-state process, which has been defined in Section 6.3, we conclude that
there is no change with time of the entropy per unit mass at any point within the control
volume, and therefore the first term of Eq. 9.2 equals zero. That is,
= o (9-6)
dt
so that, for the steady-state process,
2 m e s e ~ 2 MM - 2 %^ + 5 gea (9-7)
c.v.
in which the various mass flows, heat transfer and entropy generation rates, and states are
all constant with time.
If in a steady-state process there is only one area over which mass enters the control
volume at a uniform rate and only one area over which mass leaves the control volume at
a uniform rate, we can write
= 2% + 4c (9 ' 8)
c.v. J
and dividing the mass flow rate out gives
S e ^ s i + 2l f + S S™
Since s s , a is always greater than or equal to zero, for an adiabatic process it follows that
= Si + s gin > S{ ( 9 *9)
where the equality holds for a reversible adiabatic process.

The charging process does not happen rapidly so there will be a heat transfer loss. We
need to know this to make a better approximation about the real process.
The Reversible Steady-State Process M 313
9.3 The Reversible Steady-State process
An expression can be derived for the work in a reversible, adiabatic, steady-state process
that is of great help in understanding its significant variables. We have noted that when a
steady-state process involves a single flow of fluid into and out of the control volume, the
first law, Eq. 6.13, can be written.
v 2 v 2
q + h i + ^- J t- gli = ft e + y + 8 Z e + w
and the second law, Eq. 9.8, is
m(s e - J/) = 2 %T + V
c.v, -*
Let us now consider two types of flow, a reversible adiabatic process and a re-
versible isothermal process.
If the process is reversible and adiabatic, the second-law equation reduces to
s e = Si
It follows from the property relation
Tds = dh-vdP
that
-*< = />
dP (9.13)
Substituting these relations into Eq. 6.13 and noting that q = 0, we have for the re-
versible, adiabatic process
V? - V 2
w = (ft, - K) + * + g(z f - z e )
fe V? - V 2
= _ J „ dP + -L^JL + g( z. - z e ) (9.14)
If, instead, the process is reversible and isothermal, the second law reduces to
or
S e ~ St) - -jjr- ~ q
and the property relation can be integrated to give
T(s e ~ sd = {h e ~ A/) - j'v dP (9.16)
Substituting Eqs. 9.15 and 9.16 into the first law, Eq. 6.13, gives us the same ex-
pression as for the reversible adiabatic process, Eq. 9.14. We further note that any other
reversible process can be constructed, in the limit, from a series of alternate adiabatic and
isothermal processes. Thus, we may conclude that Eq. 9.14 is valid for any reversible,
steady-state process without the restriction that it be either adiabatic or isothermal.
314 M CHAPTER NINE SECOND-LAW ANALYSIS FOR A CONTROL VOLUME
This expression has a wide range of application. If we consider a reversible steady-
state process in which the work is zero (such as flow through a nozzle) and the fluid is in-
compressible (u = constant), Eq. 9.14 can be integrated to give
v{P e - Pj) + + g(Z e - 50 = (9.17)
This equation, known as the Bernoulli equation (after Daniel Bernoulli), is very important
in fluid mechanics.
Equation 9.14 is also frequently applied to the large class of flow processes involving
work (such as turbines and compressors) in which changes in kinetic and potential energies
of the working fluid are small. The model process for these machines is then a reversible,
steady-state process with no change in kinetic or potential energy (and commonly, though
not necessarily, adiabatic as well). For this process Eq. 9. 14 reduces to the form
w=-j £ vdP (9-18)
From this result, we conclude that the shaft work associated with this type of
process is given by the area shown in the diagram of Fig. 9.7. It is important to note that
this result applies to a very special case—the area Jf v dP is not the same as the area
p £ v — anc i i s applicable only in entirely different circumstances. We also note that the
shaft work associated with this type of process is closely related to the specific volume of
the fluid during the process. To amplify this point further, consider the simple steam
power plant show in Fig. 9.8. Suppose that this is an ideal power plant with no pressure
FIGURE 9.8 Simple
steam power plant.
The Reversible Steady-State Process B 315
drop in the piping, the boiler, or the condenser. Thus, the pressure increase in the pump is
equal to the pressure decrease in the turbine. Neglecting kinetic and potential energy
changes, the work done in each of these processes is given by Eq. 9. 1 8. Since the pump
handles liquid, which has a very small specific volume compared to that of the vapor that
flows through the turbine, the power input to the pump is much less than the power output
of the turbine. The difference is the net power output of the power plant.
This same line of reasoning can be qualitatively applied to actual devices that involve
steady-state processes, even though the processes are not exactly reversible and adiabatic.

5 MPa.
Control volume: Pump.
Inlet state: P u T t known; state fixed.
Exit state: P e known.
Process: Steady-state, isentropic.
Model: Steam tables.
Analysis
Since the process is steady, state, reversible, and adiabatic, and because changes in ki-
netic and potential energies can be neglected, we have
First law: h { = h e + w
Second law: s e — s t =
Solution
Since P e and s e are known, state e is fixed and therefore h e is known and w can be found
from the first law. However, the process is reversible and steady state, with negligible
changes in kinetic and potential energies, so that Eq. 9. 1 8 is also valid. Furthermore, since a
liquid is being pumped, the specific volume will change very little during the process.
From the steam tables, v { = 0.001 004 mVkg. Assuming that the specific volume
remains constant and using Eq. 9. 1 8, we have
dP = v{P 2 - P x ) = 0.001 004(5000 - 100) = 4.92 kJ/kg
As a final application of Eq. 9.14, we recall the reversible polytropic process for an
ideal gas, discussed in Section 8.11 for a control mass process. For the steady-state
process with no change in kinetic and potential energies, we have the relations

polytropic processes in this case as well.
These evaluations of the integral

may also be used in conjunction with Eq. 9.14 for instances in which kinetic and potential
energy changes are not negligibly small.
9.4 Principle of the Increase of entropy
The principle of the increase of entropy for a control mass analysis was discussed in Sec-
tion 8.8. The same general conclusion is reached for a control volume analysis. To
demonstrate this, consider a control volume, Fig. 9.9, that exchanges both mass and heat
with its surroundings. At the point in the surroundings where the heat transfer occurs, the
temperature is T . From Eq. 9.5, the second law for this process is
dS t
dt
We recall that the first term represents the rate of change of entropy within the con-
trol volume, and the next terms the net entropy flow out of the control volume resulting
from the mass flow. Therefore, for the surroundings, we can write
dt

Adding Eqs. 9.5 and 9.21, we have

Efficiency M 317
Because £ cv . > when T > Tand £? c . v . < when T < T } it follows that
-S a = -# + -5 = = 2^*0 (9.23)
which can be termed the general statement of the principle of the increase of entropy.
When we use Eq. 9.23 to check any particular process for a possible violation of the
second law, it will be in connection with one of our mode! processes. For example, in a
steady-state process, as we consider the two terms in Eq. 9.23, we realize that, in accor-
dance with Eq. 9.6, the first term is zero. As a result, all the entropy change that is due to
irreversibilities in this type of process is observed in the surroundings. This term may then
be evaluated using Eq. 9.21. In contrast, for the transient process, there are both control
volume and surroundings terms to evaluate. Each term is integrated over the time t of the
process, as was done in Section 9.2. Thus, Eq. 9.23 is integrated to
A5 Det - A5 c , Vi + AS^ (9.24)
in which the control volume term is
AS™. = (rn 2 s 2 - miJi) tv . (9.25)
The term for the surroundings is, after applying Eq. 9.21 to the surroundings and integrating,
A^surr = r CV ' + 2 *» t s t ~ 2 W (9.26)
9.5 EFFICIENCY
In Chapter 7 we noted that the second law of thermodynamics led to the concept of. ther-
mal efficiency for a heat engine cycle, namely
^ Qh
where W ait is the net work of the cycle and Q H is the heat transfer from the high-tempera-
ture body.
In this chapter we have extended our consideration of the second law to control vol-
ume processes, which leads us now to consider the efficiency of a process. For example,
we might be interested in the efficiency of a turbine in a steam power plant or the com-
pressor in a gas turbine engine.
In general, we can say that to determine the efficiency of a machine in which a
process takes place, we compare the actual performance of the machine under given con-
ditions to the performance that would have been achieved in an ideal process. It is in the
definition of this ideal process that the second law becomes a major consideration. For ex-
ample, a steam turbine is intended to be an adiabatic machine. The only heat transfer is
the unavoidable heat transfer that takes place between the given turbine and the surround-
ings. We also note that for a given steam turbine operating in a steady-state manner, the
state of the steam entering the turbine and the exhaust pressure are fixed. Therefore, the
ideal process is a reversible adiabatic process, which is an isentropic process, between
the inlet state and the turbine exhaust pressure. In other words, the variables P is 7), and P e
are the design variables — the first two because the working fluid has been prepared in
318 a CHAPTERNlNE second-law ANALYSIS for a control volume
prior processes to be at these conditions at the turbine inlet, while the exit pressure is fixed
by the environment into which the turbine exhausts. Thus, the ideal turbine process would
go from state i to state e $i as shown in Fig. 9.10, whereas the real turbine process is irre-
versible, with the exhaust at a larger entropy at the real exit state e. Figure 9.10 shows typ-
ical states for a steam turbine, where state e s is in the two-phase region, and state e may be
as well, or may be in the superheated vapor region, depending on the extent of irre-
versibility of the real process. Denoting the work done in the real process / to e as w, and
that done in the ideal, isentrophic process from the same P„ T x to the same P e as w„ we de-
fine the efficiency of the turbine as
= w_ = h ( ~ h e (9,27)
The same definition applies to a gas turbine, where all states are in the gaseous phase.
Typical turbine efficiencies are 0.70-O.88, with large turbines usually having higher effi-
ciencies than small ones.
EXAMPLE 9.8 A steam turbine receives steam at a pressure of 1 MPa and a temperature of 300 C. The
steam leaves the turbine at a pressure of 15 kPa. The work output of the turbine is mea-
sured and is found to be 600 kJ/kg of steam flowing through the turbine. Determine the
efficiency of the turbine.

Thus, to determine the turbine efficiency, we calculate the work that would be
done in an isentropic process between the given inlet state and final pressure. For this
isentropic process, we have
Continuity equation: mi = m e — in
First law: h t = h e> + w s _
Second law: s { = s e
Solution
From the steam tables, we get
h t = 3051.2 kJ/kg, s t = 7.1228 kJ/kg K
Therefore, atP e = 15kPa,
J« = s t = 7-1228 = 0.7548 + x^ 7.2536
x u = 0.8779
h„ = 225.9 + 0.8779(2373.1) - 2309.3 kJ/kg
From the first law for the isentropic process,
w, = h l -k a = 3051.2 - 2309.3 = 741.9 kJ/kg
But, since
w a = 600 kJ/kg
we find that
In connection with this example, it should be noted that to find the actual state e of the
steam exiting the turbine, we need to analyze the real process taking place. For the real
process
rhi = m e = m
A, = h s + w a
S e >Si
Therefore, from the first law for the real process, we have
K = 3051.2 - 600 = 2451.2 kJ/kg
2451.2 = 225.9 +^2373.1
x e = 0.9377
It is important to keep in mind that the turbine efficiency is defined in terms of an
ideal, isentropic process from P t and 7} to P e , even when one or more of these variables is
unknown. This is illustrated in the following example.

For the ideal, isentropic process from P u T, to P„ the first law is

and the second law is, from Eq. 8.28,
(Note that this equation is only for the ideal, isentropic process and not for the real
process, for which s e ~ s t > 0.)
Solution
From the air tables, Table A.7, at 1600 K, we get
h { = 1757.3 kJ/kg, si = 8.6905 kJ/kg K
From the air tables at 830 K (the actual turbine exit temperature),
ft ( = 855.3 kJ/kg
Therefore, from the first law for the real process.
w = 1757.3 - 855.3 = 902.0 kJ/kg
Using the definition of turbine efficiency,
w = 902.0/0.85 = 1061.2 kJ/kg

From the first law for the isentropic process,
h es = 1757.3 - 1061.2 - 696.1 kJ/kg

As was discussed in Section 6.4, unless specifically noted to the contrary, we nor-
mally assume compressors or pumps to be adiabatic. In this case the fluid enters the com-
pressor at P- c and T h the condition at which it exists, and exits at the desired value of P ei
the reason for building the compressor. Thus, the ideal process between the given inlet
state i and the exit pressure would be an isentropic process between state / and state e st as
shown in Fig. 9.1 1 with a work input of w s . The real process, however, is irreversible, and
the fluid exits at the real state e with a larger entropy, and a larger amount of work input w
is required. The compressor (or pump, in the case of a liquid) efficiency is defined as
Typical compressor efficiencies are in the range of 0.70-0.88 with large compres-
sors usually having higher efficiencies than small ones.
If an effort is made to cool a gas during compression by using a water jacket or fins,
the ideal process is considered a reversible isothermal process, the work input for which is

From the first law for the isentropic process, we have

so that, from the efficiency, the real work input is
w = -37.1/0.70 = -53.0kJ/kg
and from the first law for the real process, the temperature at the supercharger exit is
T e = 300 -^|| = 352.8 K
Our final example is that of nozzle efficiency. As discussed in Section 6.4, the pur-
pose of a nozzle is to produce a high-velocity fluid stream, or in terms of energy, a large
kinetic energy, at the expense of the fluid pressure. The design variables are the same as
for a turbine, P„ T h and P e . A nozzle is usually assumed to be adiabatic, such that the

ideal process is an isentropic process from state / to state e s , as shown in Fig. 9.12, with
the production of velocity V^. The real process is irreversible, with the exit state e having
a larger entropy, and a smaller exit velocity V e . The nozzle efficiency is defined in terms
of the corresponding kinetic energies,

Nozzles are simple devices with no moving parts. As a result, nozzle efficiency may be
very high, typically 0.90-0.97.
In summary, to determine the efficiency of a device that carries out a process (rather
than a cycle), we compare the actual performance to what would be achieved in a related,
but well-defined ideal process.
9,6 Some General comments
Regarding Entropy
It is quite possible at this point that a student may have a good grasp of the material that
has been covered and yet may have only a vague understanding of the significance of en-
tropy. In fact, the question "What is entropy?" is frequently raised by students with the
implication that no one really knows! This section has been included in an attempt to give
insight into the qualitative and philosophical aspects of the concept of entropy, and to il-
lustrate the broad application of entropy to many different disciplines.
First, we recall that the concept of energy rises from the first law of thermodynam-
ics and the concept of entropy from the second law of thermodynamics. Actually, it is just
as difficult to answer the question "What is energy?" as it is to answer the question "What
is entropy?" However, since we regularly use the term energy and are able to relate this
term to phenomena that we observe every day, the word energy has a definite meaning to
us and thus serves as an effective vehicle for thought and communication. The word en-
tropy could serve in the same capacity. If, when we observed a highly irreversible process
(such as cooling coffee by placing an ice cube in it), we said, "That surely increases the
entropy," we would soon be as familiar with the word entropy as we are with the word en-
ergy. In many cases when we speak about a higher efficiency we are actually speaking
about accomplishing a given objective with a smaller total increase in entropy.
324 m CHAPTER NINE SECOND-LAW ANALYSIS FOR A CONTROL VOLUME
A second point to be made regarding entropy is that in statistical thermodynamics,
the property entropy is denned in terms of probability. Although this topic will not be ex-
amined in detail in this text, a few brief remarks regarding entropy and probability may
prove helpful. From this point of view, the net increase in entropy that occurs during an
irreversible process can be associated with a change of state from a less probable state to a
more probable state. For instance, to use a previous example, one is more likely to find
gas on both sides of ruptured membrane in Fig. 7.15 than to find a gas on one side and a
vacuum on the other. Thus, when the membrane ruptures, the direction of the process is
from a less probable state to a more probable state and associated with this process is an
increase in entropy. Similarly, the more probable state is that a cup of coffee will be at the
same temperature as its surroundings than at a higher (or lower) temperature. Therefore,
as the coffee cools as the result of a transferring of heat to the surroundings, there is a
change from a less probable to a more probable state, and associated with this is an in-
crease in entropy.
SUMMARY ' The secon d law of thermodynamics is extended to a general control volume with mass
flow rates in or out for steady and transient processes. The vast majority of common de-
vices and complete systems can be treated as nearly steady-state operation even if they
have slower transients as in a car engine or jet engine. Simplification of the entropy equa-
tion arises when applied to steady-state and single-flow devices like a turbine, nozzle,
compressor, or pump. The second law and Gibbs property relation are used to develop a
general expression for reversible shaft work in a single flow that is useful m understand-
ing the importance of the specific volume (or density) that influences the magnitude of the
work. For a flow with no shaft work, consideration of the reversible process also leads to
the derivation of the energy equation for an incompressible fluid as the Bernoulli equa-
tion This covers the flows of liquids such as water or hydraulic fluid as well as airflow at
low speeds, which can be considered incompressible for velocities less than a third of the
speed of sound.
Many actual devices operate with some irreversibility in the processes that occur, so
we also have entropy generation in the flow processes and the total entropy is always in-
creasing. The characterization of performance of actual devices can be done with a com-
parison to a corresponding ideal device, giving efficiency as the ratio of two energy terms
(work or kinetic energy). ,
You should have learned a number of skills and acquired abilities from studying
this chapter that will allow you to

• Analyze steady-state, single-flow devices such as turbines, nozzles, compressors,
and pumps, both reversible and irreversible.

Bernoulli equation or the expression for reversible shaft work.

Irreversibility and
Availability
We now turn our attention to irreversibility and availability, two additional concepts that
have found increasing use in recent years. These concepts are particularly applicable in
the analysis of complex thermodynamic systems, for with the aid of a digital computer,
irreversibility and availability are very powerful tools in design and optimization studies
of such systems.
10,1 Available Energy, Reversible work,
and Irreversibility
In the previous chapter, we introduced the concept of the efficiency of a device, such as a
turbine, nozzle, or compressor (perhaps more correctly termed a first-law efficiency,
since it is given as the ratio of two energy terms). We proceed now to develop concepts
that include more meaningful second-law analysis. Our ultimate goal is to use this analy-
sis to manage our natural resources and environment better.
We first focus our attention on the potential for producing useful work from some
source or supply of energy. Consider the simple situation shown in Fig. 10.1a, in which
there is an energy source Q in the form of heat transfer from a very large and, therefore,
constant-temperature reservoir at temperature T. What is the ultimate potential for pro-
ducing work?
To answer this question, we imagine that a cyclic heat engine is available, as shown
in Fig. 10.16. To convert the maximum fraction of Q to work requires that the engine be
completely reversible, that is, a Carnot cycle, and that the lower-temperature reservoir be
at the lowest temperature possible, often, but not necessarily, at the ambient temperature.
From the first and second laws for the Carnot cycle and the usual consideration of all the
Q's as positive quantities, we find
i.e. = Q ~ Qo
T T
so that

(b)
We might say that the fraction of Q given by the right side of Eq. 10.1 is the available
portion of the total energy quantity fi. To carry this thought one s*p further, consider (he
situation show on the TS diagram in Fig. 10.2. The total shaded area is fi. The Portion
of Q that is below T 0i the environment temperature, cannot be converted into work by the
heat engine and must instead be throw away. This portion is therefore the unavailable
portion of total energy fi, and the portion lying between the two temperatures T and T is
the available energy. . .. , ]o
Let us next consider the same situation, except that the heat transfer fi is available
from a constant-pressure source, for example, a simple heat exchanger as shown m Fig.
10 3a The Camot cycle must now be replaced by a sequence of such engines, with the re-
sult shown in Fig. 103b. The only difference between the first and second examples is
that the second includes an integral, which corresponds to AS.
(10.2)
(10.3)
Substituting into the first law, we have
Note that this AS quantity does not include the standard sign convention. It corresponds to
the amount of change of entropy shown in Fig. 10.36. Equation 10.2 specifies the avail-
able portion of the quantity fi. The portion unavailable for producing work m this circum-
stance lies below T Q in Fig. 1036.

The Steady-State Process
We now proceed to extend our analysis to real, irreversible processes. In doing so, we will
consider first the case of the steady-state control volume process, since the vast majority
of applications of this type of analysis refer to components of industrial systems such as
power plants or refrigerators. It should be kept in mind that a parallel development for a
thermodynamic system analysis or for transient control volume processes will also be
made, giving analogous results.
Consider the real steady-state process shown in Fig. 10.4, in which a control vol-
ume has a single fluid stream entering at state /, has a single stream exiting at state e, re-
ceives an amount of heat q (per unit flow mass) from a reservoir at temperature T m and
does an amount of work per unit mass w. The first law is, assuming no changes in kinetic
or potential energies,
q = iK- + w (10.4)
This real process is irreversible, such that
J; = ~ *) - ~ = s m > o (10,5)
We wish to establish a quantitative measure in energy terms of the extent or degree
to which any particular real process is irreversible. This can be accomplished by compari-
son with a control volume undergoing a steady-state process with the same inlet state /,
the same exit state e s the same amount of heat transfer with the reservoir, with everything
being reversible. That is, the control volume undergoes a steady-state change with inlet h h

s, and exit h ei s e with heat transfer q leaving the reservoir at T H . If this entire process is re-
versible, then the net rate of entropy change must equal zero. Noting that, all the terms in
Eq. 10.5 are the same as for the real irreversible process, we conclude that there must be
an additional negative term in the second law for the reversible case. This can only be a
heat transfer from the surroundings, divided by the temperature at which it leaves the sur-
roundings. To make this heat transfer as small as possible, it should come from the lowest
possible temperature, usually the ambient temperature T . This is the situation shown in
Fig. 10.5, such that the second law for the reversible process is
4% = fc-„)-f "f =0 00.6)
m at *h J o
Since any reversible heat transfer must occur over only an infinitesimal tempera-
ture difference, we recognize that both heat transfers shown in Fig. 10.5 must be trans-
ferred through reversible heat engines or heat pumps. These are located inside the
control volume boundary of Fig. 10.5, which includes the original control volume of Fig.
10.4 plus any necessary heat engines and pumps. Only the two fluid flow streams, the net
work, and the two heat transfers cross this extended control surface. Equation 10.6 can
be rewritten as
The first law for the reversible process of Fig. 10.5 is
w ™ = q + q™ - (h e - A,) (10.8)
and substituting Eq. 1 0.7, we get
w rev - T Q (s e - Sl ) - (h e -ht) + q(l- Y HJ
(10.9)
This expression establishes the theoretical upper limit for the work per unit mass
flow that could be produced by a control volume undergoing a steady-state process from i
to e in which heat g is transferred from a reservoir at T H , with all processes occurring in
the environment T Q . The difference between this quantity and the work actually done in
the real process of Eqs. 10.4 and 10.5 is a measure of the extent of the irreversibility i (per
unit mass flow) of the real process. That is,
i = /«-w (10.10)

substituting Eqs. 10.4 and 10.9 into 10.10, which results in

And we note that the irreversibility of a real process is another way of expressing the sec-
ond law for that process, in energy units instead of entropy units and directly proportional

voir, and the other source transfers heat from a 200°C reservoir such that the water exit
condition is 5 MPa, 180 o C. Find the reversible work and the irreversibility.

tual heat transfer with the surroundings at 25°C, For the actual feedwater heater, the en-
ergy equation becomes

the air to a pressure of 1 MPa, where it exits at a temperature of 540 K. Since the air and

the air to a pressure of 1 50 lbf/in. 2 , where it exits at a temperature of 960 R. Since the air

The expression for reversible work for the steady-state process, Eq. 10.9, was de-
rived without including kinetic and potential energy terms. Whenever necessary, espe-
cially in nozzles and diffusers where obtaining kinetic energy change is the reason for
building the device, these terms can be included along with the enthalpy terms of the fluid
stream in and out of the control volume. Another way of including these terms would be
to say that the enthalpies in Eq. 10.9 are the total enthalpies, as used in Eq. 6.8. There are
also steady-state processes involving more than one fluid stream entering or exiting the
control volume. In such cases, it is necessary to rewrite Eq. 10.9 on a rate basis, including
the mass flow rates of the different streams involved in the process.
The Control Mass Process
Consider the real process shown in Fig. 10.8, in which a control mass receives an amount of
heat x Q t from a reservoir at temperature T Hi undergoes a change of state from 1-2, and does
an amount of work X W 2 . The first law is, assuming no changes in kinetic or potential energies,

As with the steady-state process, we wish to compare this irreversible process with
an ideal reversible process for the same change of state from U u S x to U 2i S 2 with heat
transfer X Q 2 from reservoir at T H . This is represented art Fig. 10.9, in which the extended
control surface includes the original control mass plus any necessary heat engines and
pumps required for reversible heat transfer, analogous to the case for the steady-state
process analyzed earlier. The second law for the reversible process is
A-W - (S 2 - S x ) - - ^- = (10.14)
which can be rewritten as
£T= US^Sd-^Y- (10.15)
The first law for the reversible process of Fig. 10.9 is

and substituting Eq. 10.15,
JVT = US 2 - S { ) - (U 2 - U x ) + X Q 2 [\ - (10.17)
This expression establishes the theoretical upper limit for the work that could be produced
by a control mass undergoing the change of state 1-2 in which heat X Q 2 is transferred
from a reservoir at T H , all occurring in the environment T Q . The difference between this
quantity and the work actually done in the real process of Eqs. 10,12 and 10.13 is a mea-
sure of the extent of the irreversibility I of the real process, or

EXAMPLE 10.3 An insulated rigid tank is divided into two parts A and B by a diaphragm. Each part has
a volume of 1 m 5 . Initially, part A contains water at room temperature, 20°C, with a
quality of 50%, while part B is evacuated. The diaphragm then ruptures and the water
fills the total volume. Determine the reversible work for this change of state and the irre-
versibility of the process.

Final state: V 2 known.

There is a boundary movement for the water, but since it occurs against no resistance,
there is no work done. Therefore, the first law reduces to

Solution
From the steam tables at state 1,
«i = 1243.5 kJ/kg v x - 28.895 mVkg s x = 4.4819 kJ/kgK
Therefore,
v 2 = V 2 /m = 2 X vi = 57.79 u 2 = u x = 1243.5
These two independent properties, v 2 and u 2i fix state 2. The final temperature T 2 must
be found by trial and error in the steam tables.
For T 2 = 5°C and v 2 =>x = 0.3928, u - 948.5 kJ/kg
For r 2 =10°C and v 2 = 0.5433, «=1317kJ/kg
so the final interpolation in u gives a temperature of 9°C. If the software is used, the final
state is interpolated to be
r 2 = 9.1°C x 2 = 0.513 s 2 = 4.644 kJ/kgK
with the given u and v. Since the actual work is zero we have
= 293.2(l/28.895)(4.644 - 4.4819) = 1.645 kJ

For processes in which kinetic and potential energy changes are significant, the de-
velopment of the expressions for work, reversible work, and irreversibility are all the
same, substituting E = U + KE 4- PE for U in any equation involving energy.
The Transient Process
The transient process has a control volume change from state 1 to state 2 with possible
mass flow in at state i and/or flow out at state e. The procedure for developing an expres-
sion for reversible work for this process is analogous to the previous examples followed for
the steady state and the control mass. In this case, assuming no kinetic or potential energy
terms are included, the equation for reversible work will contain control volume entropy
and energy terms of the same form as in Eq. 10.17 (but recognizing that the masses at
states 1 and 2 are different), and will also contain entropy and enthalpy flow terms the
same as in Eq. 10.9 (each one including the appropriate mass flow). The result is

can be replaced by e x and e 2> whenever kinetic and potential energies are significant. Also,
summations can be added to the flow terms in cases where there is more than one flow
stream in or out of the control volume.
The irreversibility for the transient process is found from the general definition.

Since the line pressure is higher than the initial pressure inside the tank, flow is going

sure. The continuity, energy, and entropy equations are

where kinetic and potential energies are zero for the initial and final states and neglected
for the inlet flow.
Solution
From the ammonia tables, the initial and line state properties are
u, = 0.6995 m 3 /kg a, = 1369.5 kJ/kg s, = 5.927 kJ/kg K
h ( = 134.41 kJ/kg St - 0.5408 kJ/kgK
The initial mass is therefore
m, = 1%! = 1/0.6995 = 1.4296 kg
It is observed that only the final pressure is known, so one property is needed. The un-
knowns are the final mass and final internal energy in the energy equation. Since only
one property is unknown, the tw.o quantities are not independent. From the energy equa-
tion we have
m 2 (u 2 - /*,) = wi(«i h,)
from which it is seen that u 2 > h t and the state therefore is two-phase or superheated
vapor. Assume that the state is two phase, then
m 2 - v/v 2 = 1/(0.001534 + x 2 X 0.41684)
u 2 = 133.964 I x 2 X 1175.257
Availability and Second-Law Efficiency 1 355
so the energy equation is
133.964 + x 2 X 1175.257 - 134.41
0.001534 + ^X 0.041684 ~= ^296(1369.5 - 134.41) = 1765.67 kJ
This equation is solved for the quality and the rest of the properties to give
x 2 = 0.007182 v 2 = 0.0045276 m 3 /kg s 2 = 0.5762 kj/kg
Now the final mass and the irreversibility are found
m 2 = F/y 2 = 1/0.0045276 = 220.87 kg

What is the maximum reversible work that can be done by a given mass in a given state?
In the previous section, we developed expressions for the reversible work for a given
change of state for a control mass and control volume undergoing specific types of
processes. For any given case, what final state will give the maximum reversible work?
The answer to this question is that, for any type of process, when the mass comes
into equilibrium with the environment, no spontaneous change of state will occur and the
mass will be incapable of doing any work. Therefore, if a mass in a given state undergoes
a completely reversible process until it reaches a state in which it is in equilibrium with
the environment, the maximum reversible work will have been done by the mass. In this
sense, we refer to the availability at the original state in terms of the potential for achiev-
ing the maximum possible work by the mass.
If a control mass is in equilibrium with the surroundings, it must certainly be in pres-
sure and temperature equilibrium with the surroundings, that is, at pressure P and tempera-
ture T . It must also be in chemical equilibrium with the surroundings, which implies that no
further chemical reaction will take place. Equilibrium with the surroundings also requires
that the system have zero velocity and minimum potential energy. Similar requirements can
be set forth regarding electrical and surface effects if these are relevant to a given problem.
The same general remarks can be made about a quantity of mass that undergoes a
steady-state process. With a given state for the mass entering the control volume, the re-
versible work will be a maximum when this mass leaves the control volume in equilibrium
with the surroundings. This means that as the mass leaves the control volume, it must be at
the pressure and temperature of the surroundings, be in chemical equilibrium with the sur-
roundings, and have minimum potential energy and zero velocity. (The mass leaving the
control volume must of necessity have some velocity, but it can be made to approach zero.)
Let us first consider the availability associated with a steady-state process. For a
control volume with a single-flow stream, the reversible work is given by Eq. 10.9. In-
cluding kinetic and potential energies, this expression is rewritten in the form,
^ rev = (Ajari - W - (h mje - T s e ) + q ^\-^j
356 H CHAPTER TEN IRREVERSIBILITY AND AVAILABILITY
From the discussion of the heat engine that led to Eq. 10.1, it is clear that the last term in
the expression for the reversible work is the contribution to the net reversible work from
the heat transfers. These can be viewed as transfer of availability associated with g, which
gives a potential to do work as in a heat engine. Such contributions are separate from the
availability in the flow itself. The steady-state flow reversible work will be maximum, rel-
ative to the surroundings, when the mass leaving the control volume is in equilibrium
with the surroundings. The state in which the fluid is in equilibrium with the surroundings
is designated with subscript 0, and the reversible work will be maximum when h e = h ,
s e = s a> V e = 0, and Z e = Z„. This maximum reversible work per unit mass flow without
the additional heat transfers is the flow availability or exergy and is assigned the symbol ip
ijf=(h-T^ + ^+gzj- (h Q - + gZ,) (1 0.24)
It is written without subscript for the inlet state to indicate that this is the flow availability
associated with a substance in any state as it enters the control volume in a steady-state
process. The reversible work is therefore seen to be equal to the decrease in flow avail-
ability plus the reversible work that can be extracted from heat engines operating with the
heat transfer at T H and the ambient.
Irreversibility is as usual defined as the difference between the reversible work and
the actual work. If we write this as a general expression on a rate basis, including summa-
tions to account for the possibility of more than one flow stream and also more than one
heat transfer, the result is
L. - (s wf> t ~ 2 ™a) + 2 (i - y) Qc,,j - (io-25)
In this form, the irreversibility is equal to the decrease in the availability of the mass flows
plus the decrease of availability of each heat transfer rate j at reservoir 3} minus the in-
crease in availability of the surroundings that receive the actual work. The rate of irre-
versibility is thus seen to be the rate of destruction of availability, which is also directly,
proportional to the net rate of entropy increase, as noted in Eq. 1 0. 1 1.
For a control mass, a similar consideration of the maximum reversible work will
lead to a nonftow availability concept. In this case the volume may change, and some
work is exchanged with the ambient, which is not available as useful work. The reversible
work for a control mass is given by Eq. 10.17. Including kinetic and potential energies
(e instead of u% this expressions is rewritten as
lW f = (e, - Ttfi) - (e 2 - V 2 ) + x q 2 (a -
which is the maximum between the two given states. This work is available if the final
state is in equilibrium with the surroundings, for which we must have e 2 = e = u$ + gZ ,
the kinetic energy being zero, and s 2 = s . The work done against the surroundings, w^, is
w^r = A(t> " v{) = -P (t>i - f o)
such that the maximum available work is
w avail — '"max "W
= {e- Tos) ~ {e - 7> ) + P (v - v ) + ift ( 1 " ^) ( 10 - 26 )
Availability and Second-Law efficiency S 357
The subscript is again dropped to indicate that this is the maximum available work at a
given state having also x q 2 available from a source at T H . The nonflow availability is
defined as the maximum available work from a state without the heat transfers in-
cluded as
Sometimes the definition excludes the kinetic and potential energies, in which case u
should be used instead of e.
The irreversibility may again be related to the changes in availability through the
difference between the reversible work and the actual work. The reversible work from
above is expressed with the availability from which the actual work is subtracted to
give
including the possibility of having heat transfer with more than one reservoir. The irre-
versibility is then equal to the decrease in availability of the control mass plus the de-
crease in availability of the heat transfers at reservoirs 7} minus the increase in availability
of the surroundings that received the actual work. It is noted again that the irreversibility
expresses the net destruction of availability of the control mass and surroundings, which
is proportional to the net entropy increase, as given in Eq, 10.19.
The less the irreversibility associated with a given change of state, the greater the
amount of work that will be done (or the smaller the amount of work that will be re-
quired). This relation is significant in at least two regards. The first is that availability
is one of our natural resources. This availability is found in such forms as oil reserves,
coal reserves, and uranium reserves. Suppose we wish to accomplish a given objective
that requires a certain amount of work. If this work is produced reversibly while draw-
ing on one of the availability reserves, the decrease in availability is exactly equal to
the reversible work. However, since there are irreversibilities in producing this re-
quired amount of work, the actual work will be less than the reversible work, and the
decrease in availability will be greater (by the amount of the irreversibility) than if this
w r ork had been produced reversibly. Thus, the more irreversibilities we have in all our
processes, the greater will be the decrease in our availability reserves. 1 The conserva-
tion and effective use of these availability reserves is an important responsibility for
all of us.
The second reason that it is desirable to accomplish a given objective with the
smallest irreversibility is an economic one. Work costs money, and in many cases a given
objective can be accomplished at less cost when the irreversibility is less. It should be
noted, however, that many factors enter into the total cost of accomplishing a given objec-
tive, and an optimization process that considers many factors is often necessary to arrive
at the most economical design. For example, in a heat-transfer process, the smaller the
'In many popular talks, reference is made to our energy reserves. From a thermodynamic point of
view, availability reserves would be a much more acceptable term. There is much energy in the at-
mosphere and the ocean, but relatively little availability.

temperature difference across which the heat is transferred, the less the irreversibility.
However, for a given rate of heat transfer, a smaller temperature difference will require a
larger (and therefore more expensive) heat exchanger. These various factors must all be
considered in developing the optimum and most economical design.
In many engineering decisions, other factors, such as the impact on the environment
(for example, air pollution and water pollution) and the impact on society must be consid-
ered in developing the optimum design.
Along with the increased use of availability analysis in recent years, a term called the
second-law efficiency has come into more common use. This term refers to comparison of
the desired output of a process with the cost, or input, in terms of the thermodynamics avail-
ability. Thus, the isentropic turbine efficiency defined by Eq. 9.27 as the actual work output
divided by the work for a hypothetical isentropic expansion from the same inlet state to the
same exit pressure might well be called a first-law efficiency, in that it is a comparison of
two energy quantities. The second-law efficiency, as just described, would be the actual
work output of the turbine divided by the decrease in availability from the same inlet state to
the same exit state. For the turbine shown in Fig. 10.1 1, the second-law efficiency is
law
(10.29)
In this sense, this concept provides a rating or measure of the real process in terms of the
actual change of state and is simply another convenient way of utilizing the concept of
thermodynamic availability. In a similar manner, the second-law efficiency of a pump or
compressor is the ratio of the increase in availability to the work input to the device.

ative to the process input, in terms of availability changes or transfers. For example, in a

EXAMPLE 10.6 In a boiler, heat is transferred from the products of combustion to the steam. The tem-
perature of the products of combustion decreases from 1 100°C to 550°C, while the pres-
sure remains, constant at 0.1 MPa. The average constant-pressure specific heat of the
products of combustion is 1.09 kJ/kg K. The water enters at 0.8 MPa, 150°C, and leaves
at 0.8 MPa, 250°C. Determine the second-law efficiency for this process and the irre-
versibility per kilogram of water evaporated.

It is also of interest to determine the net change of entropy. The change in the en-
tropy of the water is
- sJ Hl0 = 7.0384 - 1.8418 - 5.1966 kJ/kg H 2 K
The change in the entropy of the products is
<* 4 " = "3.866 (l.09 In —^—j = -2.1564 kJ/kg H a O K
Thus, there is a net increase in entropy during the process. The irreversibility could also
have been calculated from Eq. 10.11:

For the control volume selected, £> c v = 0, and therefore
- 298.15(5.1966) + 298.15(-2.1564)

These two processes are shown on the T-s diagram of Fig. 10.15. Line 3-4 represents
the process for the 3.866 kg of products. Area 3-4-e-</-3 represents the heat trans-
ferred from the 3.866 kg of products of combustion, and area 3^~e-f~3 represents
the decrease in availability of these products. Area l- a -6-2-/i-c-l represents
the heat transferred to the water, and this is equal to area 3-4-c-rf-3, which repre-
sents the heat transferred from the products of combustion. Area l-a-b-2~g-e-\
represents the increase in availability of the water. The difference between area
3-4-e-/-3 and area \-a-b~2-g-e-l represents the net decrease in availability. It is
readily shown that this net change is equal to f-g-h~d~f s or T Q (A$X H . Since the
actual work is zero, this area also represents the irreversibility, which agrees with our
calculation.
103 Exeegy Balance Equation
The previous treatment of availability or exergy in different situations was done sepa-
rately for the steady-flow, the control mass, and the transient processes. For each case, an
actual process was compared to an ideal counterpart, which led to the reversible work and
the irreversibility. When the reference was made with respect to the ambient state, we
364 S Chapter. Ten Irreversibility and availability
found the flow availability, 4> in Eq. 10.24, and the no-flow availability, <f> m Eq. 10.27.
We want to show that these forms of availability are consistent with one another The
whole concept is unified by a formulation of the exergy for a general control volume from
which we wilt recognize all the previous forms of availability as special cases of the more
general form. , .
In this analysis, we start out with the definition of exergy, <X> = m<f>, as the maxi-
mum available work at a given state of a mass from Eq. 10.27, as
$ - m<f> = m(e - e ) + PM" " u o) - " %> (10- 33 )
Here subscript "0" refers to the ambient state with zero kinetic energy, the dead state,
from which we take our reference. Because the properties at the reference state are con-
stants, the rate of change for $ becomes
= ±e + p f - r„ d -f - (/,„ - W f 0*w>
and we used, /i„ = e„ + J>„«o. to shorten the expression. Now we substitute the rate of
change of mass from the continuity equation, Eq. 6.1,
the rate of change of total energy from the energy equation, Eq. 6.8,
dt dt
and the rate of change of entropy from the entropy equation, Eq. 9.2
into the rate of exergy equation Eq. 10.34. When that is done, we get
^ = 2 ficv. - ^c.v. +" 2 mK* i - 1 "A*
Now collect the terms relating to the heat transfer together and those relating to the flow
together and group them as

Here we recognize the appearance of the specific flow exergies, ip from Eq. 10.24,
*Pi = t - h - T Q (Si - s )
$e = Kt s -h~ T (s e - s Q ) (10.37)
as the terms associated with the flow. The rate equation for exergy can verbally be stated
as all the other balance equations
Rate of exergy storage - Transfer by heat + Transfer by shaft/boundary work
+ Transfer by flow - Exergy destruction
and we notice that all the transfers take place with some surroundings and thus do not add
up to any net change when the total world is considered. Only the exergy destruction due
to entropy generation lowers the overall exergy level, and we can thus identify the regions
in space where this occurs as the locations that have entropy generation. The exergy de-
struction is identical to the previously defined term, irreversibility.
Let us briefly consider some of the special cases covered in Section 10.1. First look
at the steady-flow control volume with a single flow in and out. For steady state we have
no storage of mass, energy, entropy, or exergy, and the volume is constant, so solve for
the work term in Eq. 10.36 as
Kv. = 2 - y) + ~ ^ ~ T ^ ( 103S )
Now divide by the mass flow rate to give the specific work

The reference state offset in the two specific flow exergies drop out as

and the specific work becomes
w = 2 - y) + h ™ i ~ A «* * ~ T ^ s i ~ s e) - T o* g ™
= w rev - Ttf^ (10.40)
It reduces to the expression for reversible work in Eq. 10.9 when there is a single heat-
transfer term and no entropy generation. We can also see how much lower the actual spe-
cific work is due to the entropy generation; namely, it equals the reversible specific work
minus the specific exergy destruction.
EXAMPLE 10,7 Let us look at the flows and fluxes of exergy for the feedwater heater in Example 10.1.
The feedwater heater has a single flow, two heat transfers, and no work involved. When
we do the balance of terms in Eq. 10.39 and evaluate the flow exergies from Eq. 10.37,
we need the reference properties (take saturated liquid instead of 100 kPa at 25°C):

The flow exergies become

& = Awe - T<>{s e - s )
= 765.25 - 104.87 - 298.2 X (2.1341 - 0.3687) = 133.94 kJ/kg

(l-g^-(^ll) 180 = 36 - 17kJ/kg

The destruction of exergy is then the balance (w = 0) of Eq. 10.39 as
= 36.17 + 152.84 + 6.92 - 133.94 = 62.0kJ/kg
We can now express the heater's second-law efficiency as

The exergy fluxes are shown in Fig. 10.16, and the second-law efficiency shows that
there is a potential for improvement. We should lower the temperature difference be-
tween the source and the water flow by adding more energy from the low-temperature
source, thus decreasing the irreversibility.

ing element, or refrigerator has no storage, and the work is given by Eq. 10.38 with m -

The work equals the Carnot heat engine work reduced by the exergy destruction of any ir-
reversible process occurring inside the control volume. For the case of a single heat trans-
fer and a reversible process, the work reduces to that given in Eq. 10.1 except it is
expressed as a rate in Eq. 10.41.
EXAMPLE 10.8
Assume a 500 W heating element in a stove with an element surface temperature of
1000 K. On top of the element is a ceramic top with a top surface temperature of 500
K, where both of these are shown in Fig. 10,17. Let us disregard any heat transfer
downwards and follow the flux of exergy and find the exergy destruction in the
process.

Take just the heating element as a control volume in steady state with electrical work
going in and heat transfer going out.

so it is equal to the exergy from the heat transfer lowered by the increase in the stored ex-
ergy and the amount of exergy destroyed in the process. This result for a reversible
process is identical to the reversible work inEq. 10.17 minus the work to the ambient.
NUMMARY
Work out of a Carnot-cycle heat engine is the available energy in the heat transfer from
the hot source; the heat transfer to the ambient is unavailable. When an actual device is
compared to an ideal device with the same flows and states in and out, we get to the con-
cept of reversible work and exergy (availability). The reversible work is the maximum
work we can get out of a given set of flows and heat transfers or, alternatively, the mini-
mum work we have to put into the device. The comparison between the actual work and
the theoretical maximum work gives a second-law efficiency. When exergy (availability)
is used, the second-law efficiency can also be used for devices that do not involve shaft-
work such as heat exchangers. In that case, we compare the exergy given out by one flow
to the exergy gained by the other flow, giving a ratio of exergies instead of energies used
for the first-law efficiency. Any irreversibility (entropy generation) in a process does de-
stroy exergy (availability) and is undesirable. The concept of available work can be used
to make a general definition of exergy as being the reversible work minus the work that
must go to the ambient. From this definition we can construct the exergy balance equation
and apply it to different control volumes. From a design perspective we can then focus on
the flows and fluxes of exergy and improve the processes that destroy exergy.

P OWER AND
REFRIGERATION
SYSTEMS
Some power plants, such as the simple steam power plant, which we have considered
several times, operate in a cycle. That is, the working fluid undergoes a series of
processes and finally returns to the initial state. In other power plants sucl : as he
Internal-combustion engine and the gas turbine, the working fluid does not go through
a thermodynamic cycle, even though the engine itself may operate m a mechanical
cycle. In this instance, the working fluid has a different composition or is in a differ-
ent state at the conclusion of the process than it had or was at the beginning. Such
equipment is sometimes said to operate on the open cycle the word cycle is really a
misnomer), whereas the steam power plant operates on a closed cycle. The same da-
tinction between open and closed cycles can be made regarding refrigeration devices.
For both the open- and closed-cycle apparatus, however, it is advantageous to analyze
the performance of an idealized closed cycle similar to the actual cycle. Such » proce-
dure is particularly advantageous for determining the influence of certain variables on
performance. For example, the spark-ignition internal-combustion engine is usually
approximated by the Otto cycle. From an analysis of the Otto cycle we conclude that
increasing the compression ratio increases the efficiency. This is also true for the ac-
tual engine, even though the Otto-cycle efficiencies may deviate significantly from
^ "TWsth^toTs'concenied with these idealized cycles for both power and refrigera-
tion apparatus. Both vapors and ideal gases are considered as working fluids. Anatten^pt
will be made to point out how the processes in actual apparatus deviate from the ideal
Consideration is also given to certain modifications of the basic cycles that are intended
to improve performance. These modifications include the use of devices such as regener-
ators multistage compressors and expanders, and mtercoolers. Vanous ; omb ^ c °f
these types of systems and also special applications, such as cogeneration of electrical
power and energy, combined cycles, topping and bottoming cycles, and binary cycle sys-
tems, are also discussed in this chapter and in the problems.
ll.i introduction to power Systems
In introducing the second law of thermodynamics in Chapter 7, we considered cyclic heat
engines consisting of four separate processes. We noted that these engines can be ^oper-
ated as steady-state devices involving shaft work, as shown m Fig. 7.16, or mstead as
382
Introduction to Power Systems 383
cylinder/piston devices involving boundary-movement work, as shown in Fig. 7.17. The
former may have a working fluid that changes phase during the processes in the cycle, or
may have a single-phase working fluid throughout. The latter type would normally have a
gaseous working fluid throughout the cycle.
For a reversible steady-state process involving negligible kinetic and potential en-
ergy changes, the shaft work per unit mass is given by Eq. 9.19,
w = - j v dP
For a reversible process involving a simple compressible substance, the boundary
movement work per unit mass is given by Eq. 4.3,
w = j P dv
The areas represented by these two integrals are shown in Fig. 11.1. It is of interest
to note that, in the former case, there is no work involved in a constant-pressure process,
while in the latter case, there is no work involved in a constant-volume process.
Let us now consider a power system consisting of four steady-state processes, as in
Fig. 7.16. We assume that each process is internally reversible and has negligible
changes in kinetic and potential energies, which results in the work for each process
being given by Eq. 9.19. For convenience of operation, we will make the two heat-trans-
fer processes (boiler and condenser) constant-pressure processes, such that those are
simple heat exchangers involving no work. Let us also assume that the turbine and pump
processes are both adiabatic, such that they are therefore isentropic processes. Thus, the
four processes comprising the cycle are as shown in Fig. 11.2. Note that if the entire
cycle takes place inside the two-phase liquid-vapor dome, the resulting cycle is the
Camot cycle, since the two constant-pressure processes are also isothermal. Otherwise,
this cycle is not a Carnot cycle. In either case, we find that the net work output for this
power system is given by
r2 r4 ri r3
ll Vt=-j vdP+O-j vdP + 0=-j vdP+ j vdP
and, since P 2 = P 3 and also Pj = P 4 , we find that the system produces a net work out-
put because the specific volume is larger during the expansion from 3 to 4 than it
is during the compression from 1 to 2. This result is also evident from the areas

process power cycle.
-/ vd P in Fig 11 2. We conclude that it would be advantageous to have this differ-
ence in specific volume be as large as possible, as, for example, the difference between
a vapor and a liquid. ,
If the four-process cycle shown in Fig. 11.2 were accomplished in a cylinder/piston
system involving boundary-movement work, then the net work output for this power sys-
tem would be given by
w„
= J 3 ' Pdv + J" ^ Pdu + j Pdu + Pdu
and from these four areas on Fig. 11.2, we note that the pressure is higher dunng any
given change in volume in the two expansion processes than in the two compression
processes, resulting in a net positive area and a net work output.
For either of the two cases just analyzed, it is noted from Fig. 1 1.2 that the net work
output of the cycle is equal to the area enclosed by the process lines 1-2-3-4-1, and this
area is the same for both cases, even though the work terms for the four individual
processes are different for the two cases.
In the next several sections, we consider the Rankine cycle, which is the ideal, tour-
steady-state process cycle shown in Fig. 1 1.2, utilizing a phase change between vapor and
liquid to maximize the difference in specific volume during expansion and compression.
This is the idealized model for a steam power plant system.
11.2 THE RANKINE CYCLE
We now consider the idealized four-steady-state-process cycle shown in Fig. 11.2, in
which state 1 is saturated liquid and state 3 is either saturated vapor or superheated vapor.
This system is termed the Rankine cycle and is the model for the simple steam power
plant. It is convenient to show the states and processes on a T-s diagram, as given in Fig.
1 1.3. The four processes are:
1- 2 : Reversible adiabatic pumping process in the pump
2- 3: Constant-pressure transfer of heat in the boiler
Reversible adiabatic expansion in the turbine (or other prime mover such as a steam
engine)
4-1: Constant-pressure transfer of heat in the condenser

cycle.
TfiMfflNET
As mentioned earlier, the Rankine cycle also includes the possibility of superheat-
ing the vapor, as cycle 1-2-3 '-4 -1.
If changes of kinetic and potential energy are neglected, heat transfer and work may
be represented by various areas on the T-s diagram. The heat transferred to the working
fluid is represented by area a-2-2'-Z-b-a t and the heat transferred from the working fluid
by area a-l-4-b-a. From the first law we conclude that the area representing the work is
the difference between these two areas — area 1—2— 2'— 3^4— 1 . The thermal efficiency is
defined by the relation
-r, - w «'- area l-2~2'-3-4-l , 1lt .
Vth 9h areaa-2-2'-3-^ (1U)
For analyzing the Rankine cycle, it is helpful to think of efficiency as depending on
the average temperature at which heat is supplied and the average temperature at which
heat is rejected. Any changes that increase the average temperature at which heat is sup-
plied or decrease the average temperature heat is rejected will increase the Rankine-cycle
efficiency.
In analyzing the ideal cycles in this chapter, the changes in kinetic and potential en-
ergies from one point in the cycle to another are neglected. In general, this is a reasonable
assumption for the actual cycles.
It is readily evident that the Rankine cycle has a lower efficiency than a Carnot
cycle with the same maximum and minimum temperatures as a Rankine cycle because the
average temperature between 2 and 2' is less than the temperature during evaporation. We
might well ask, why choose the Rankine cycle as the ideal cycle? Why not select the
Carnot cycle l'-2'-3-4-I'? At least two reasons can be given. The first reason concerns
the pumping process. State 1' is a mixture of liquid and vapor. Great difficulties are en-
countered in building a pump that will handle the mixture of liquid and vapor at 1 ' and
deliver saturated liquid at 2', It is much easier to condense the vapor completely and han-
dle only liquid in the pump: The Rankine cycle is based on this fact. The second reason
concerns superheating the vapor. In the Rankine cycle the vapor is superheated at constant
pressure, process 3-3'. In the Carnot cycle all the heat transfer is at constant temperature,
and therefore the vapor is superheated in process 3-3". Note, however, that during this
process the pressure is dropping, which means that the heat must be transferred to the
vapor as it undergoes an expansion process in which work is done. This heat transfer is
also very difficult to achieve in practice. Thus, the Rankine cycle is the ideal cycle that
386 ■ Chapter eleven power and refrigeration systems
can be approximated in practice. In the following sections we will consider some varia-
Tns onTLrJcine cycle that enable it to approach more closely the effioency of the

11.3 effect of pressure and temperature
on the Rankin e cycle
Let us first consider the effect of exhaust pressure and temperature on the Rankine
cycle. This effect is shown on the Ts diagram of Fig. 11.4. Let the exhaust pressure
drop from P 4 to P' 4> with the corresponding decrease in temperature at which heat is
rejected. The net work is increased by area l-4-4'-l'-2'-2-l (shown by the cross-
hatching). The heat transferred to the steam is increased by area a'-2'-2-a-a'. Since
these two areas are approximately equal, the net result is an increase in cycle efficiency.
This is also evident from the fact that the average temperature at which heat is rejected
is decreased. Note, however, that lowering the back pressure causes the moisture con-
tent of the steam leaving the turbine to increase. This is a significant factor because if
the moisture in the low-pressure stages of the turbine exceeds about 10%, not only is
there a decrease in turbine efficiency, but erosion of the turbine blades may also be a
very serious problem.
Next, consider the effect of superheating the steam in the boiler, as shown in Fig.
1 1.5. We see that the work is increased by area 3-3'-4'-4-3, and the heat transferred in
the boiler is increased by area 3-3'-6'-^-3. Since the ratio of these two areas is greater
than the ratio of net work to heat supplied for the rest of the cycle, it is evident that for

of superheating on
Rankine-cycle efficiency.
given pressures, superheating the steam increases the Rankine-cycle efficiency. This in-
crease in efficiency would aiso follow from the fact that the average temperature at which
heat is transferred to the steam is increased. Note also that when the steam is superheated,
the quality of the steam leaving the turbine increases.
Finally the influence of the maximum pressure of the steam must be considered,
and this is shown in Fig. II .6. In this analysis the maximum temperature of the steam,
as well as the exhaust pressure, is held constant. The heat rejected decreases by area
U-4>-A-b-b' The net work increases by the amount of the single cross-hatching and
decreases by the amount of the double cross-hatching. Therefore, the net work tends to
remain the same, but the heat rejected decreases, and hence the Rankine-cycle effi-
ciency increases with an increase in maximum pressure. Note that in this instance too
the average temperature at which heat is supplied increases with an increase in pres-
sure. The quality of the steam leaving the turbine decreases as the maximum pressure
increases. . T
To summarize this section, we can say that the efficiency of the Rankine cycle can
be increased by lowering the exhaust pressure, by increasing the pressure during heat ad-
dition and by superheating the steam. The quality of the steam leaving the turbine is in-
creased by superheating the steam and decreased by lowering the exhaust pressure and by
increasing the pressure during heat addition.

q L = h~h = 2144.1 - 191.8 = 1952.3 kJ/kg

The net work could also be determined by calculating the heat rejected in the condenser,

q L = h 4 - h x = 913.0 - 69.7 = 843.3 Btu/lbm

11.4 The Reheat Cycle
In the last section we noted that the efficiency of the Rankine cycle could be increased
by increasing the pressure during the addition of heat. However, the increase in pres-
sure also increases the moisture content of the steam in the low-pressure end of the tur-
bine. The reheat cycle has been developed to take advantage of the increased
efficiency with higher pressures, and yet avoid excessive moisture in the low-pressure
stages of the turbine. This cycle is shown schematically and on a T-s diagram in Fig.
11. 7. The unique feature of this cycle is that the steam is expanded to some intermedi-
ate pressure in the turbine and is then reheated in the boiler, after which it expands in
the turbine to the exhaust pressure. It is evident from the T-s diagram that there is very
little gain in efficiency from reheating the steam, because the average temperature at
which heat is supplied is not greatly changed. The chief advantage is in decreasing to a
safe value the moisture content in the low-pressure stages of the turbine. If metals
could be found that would enable us to superheat the steam to 3', the simple Rankine
cycle would be more efficient than the reheat cycle, and there would be no need for the
reheat cycle.

EXAMPLE 11 .3 Consider a reheat cycle utilizing steam. Steam leaves the boiler and enters the turbine at
4 MPa, 400°C. After expansion in the turbine to 400 kPa, the steam is reheated to 400°C
and then expanded in the low-pressure turbine to 10 kPa. Determine the cycle efficiency.
For each control volume analyzed, the thermodynamic model is the steam tables,
the process is steady state, and changes in kinetic and potential energies are negligible.

Solution
Substituting,
q H = (h 3 - h 2 ) + (h 5 ~ h A )
= (3213.6 - 195.8) + (3273.4 - 2685.6) = 3605.6 kj/kg
Therefore,
Wnrt = w t - w p = 1297.1 - 4.0 = 1293.1 kj/kg
By comparing this example with Example 1 1.2, we find that through reheating the gain
in efficiency is relatively small, but the moisture content of the vapor leaving the turbine
is decreased from 18.4 to 3.4%.
Another important variation from the Rankine cycle is the regenerative cycle, which uses
feed water heaters. The basic concepts of this cycle can be demonstrated by considering
the Rankine cycle without superheat as shown in Fig. 11.8. During the process between
states 2 and 2', the working fluid is heated while in the liquid phase, and the average tem-
perature of the working fluid is much lower than during the vaporization process 2'-3.
The process between states 2 and 2' causes the average temperature at which heat is sup-
plied in the Rankine cycle to be lower than in the Camot cycle 1 2'— 3-4— 1 Conse-
quently, the efficiency of the Rankine cycle is lower than that of the corresponding Carnot
cycle. In the regenerative cycle the working fluid enters the boiler at some state between 2
and 2'; consequently, the average temperature at which heat is supplied is higher.
Consider first an idealized regenerative cycle, as shown in Fig. 11.9. The unique
feature of this cycle compared to the Rankine cycle is that after leaving the pump, the liq-
uid circulates around the turbine casing, counterflow to the direction of vapor flow in the
turbine. Thus, it is possible to transfer to the liquid flowing around the turbine the heat
from the vapor as it flows through the turbine. Let us assume for the moment that this is a
reversible heat transfer; that is, at each point the temperature of the vapor is only infmites-
imally higher than the temperature of the liquid. In this instance line 4-5 on the Ts dia-

gram of Fig. 1 1.9, which represents the states of the vapor flowing through the turbine, is
exactly parallel to line 1-2-3, which represents the pumping process (1-2) and the states
of the liquid flowing around the turbine. Consequently, areas 2-~3~b~a-2 and 5-A-d-c-5
are not only equal but congruous, and these areas, respectively, represent the heat trans-
ferred to the liquid and from the vapor. Heat is also transferred to the working fluid at
constant temperature in process 3-4, and area 3^4-^d-b~3 represents this heat transfer.
Heat is transferred from the working fluid in process 5-1, and area l-5-c-a-\ represents
this heat transfer. This area is exactly equal to area V~5'~d-b-V , which is the heat re-
jected in the related Carnot cycle l'-3-4-5'-F, Thus, the efficiency of this idealized re-
generative cycle is exactly equal to the efficiency of the Carnot cycle with the same heat
supply and heat rejection temperatures.
Quite obviously, this idealized regenerative cycle is impractical. First, it would be
impossible to effect the necessary heat transfer from the vapor in the turbine to the liquid
feedwater. Furthermore, the moisture content of the vapor leaving the turbine increases
considerably as a result of the heat transfer. The disadvantage of this has been noted pre-
viously. The practical regenerative cycle extracts some of the vapor after it has partially
expanded in the turbine and uses feedwater heaters, as shown in Fig. 11.10.
Steam enters the turbine at state 5. After expansion to state 6, some of the steam is
extracted and enters the feedwater heater. The steam that is not extracted is expanded in

pumped into the feedwater heater where it mixes with the steam extracted from the tur-
bine The proportion of steam extracted is just sufficient to cause the liquid leaving the
feedwater heater to be saturated at state 3. Note that the liquid has not been pumpec to
the boiler pressure, but only to the intermediate pressure corresponding to state 6. An-
other pump is required to pump the liquid leaving the feedwater heater to boiler pres-
sure. The significant point is that the average temperature at which heat is supplied has
been increased. . - -n,...,.
Consider a control volume around the open feedwater heater in Fig. 1 1 . 10. The con-

so
(11.3)
m 7 = (1 - x)m 5 = m x = m 2
The energy equation with no external heat transfer and no work becomes
m 2 h 2 + m^i 6 = m^hy
into which we substitute the mass flow rates (m 3 = »i 5 ) as
(1 - x)m$h 2 + Jewish = m s h 3 C 1 *- 4 )
We take state 3 as the limit of saturated liquid (we do not want to heat further as it would
move into the two-phase region and damage the pump P2) and then solve for x
(11.5)
x =
h 6 - h 2
This establishes the maximum extraction fraction we should take out at this extraction
pressure.
The regenerative Cycle H 399
This cycle is somewhat difficult to show on a T—s diagram because the masses of
steam flowing through the various cdmponents vary. The T—s diagram of Fig. 11.10 sim-
ply shows the state of the fluid at the various points.
Area 4-5-c-b-A in Fig. 11.10 represents the heat transferred per kilogram of work-
ing fluid. Process 7-1 is the heat rejection process, but since not all the steam passes
through the condenser, area 1—1—c—a-l represents the heat transfer per kilogram flowing
through the condenser, which does not represent the heat transfer per kilogram of working
fluid entering the turbine. Between states 6 and 7 only part of the steam is flowing through
the turbine. The example that follows illustrates the calculations for the regenerative cycle.
EXAMPLE 11,4 Consider a regenerative cycle using steam as the working fluid. Steam leaves the boiler
and enters the turbine at 4 MPa, 400°C. After expansion to 400 kPa, some of the steam is
extracted from the turbine for the purpose of heating the feedwater in an open feedwater
heater. The pressure in the feedwater heater is 400 kPa, and the water leaving it is satu-
rated liquid at 400 kPa. The steam not extracted expands to 10 kPa. Determine the cycle
efficiency.
The line diagram and T—s diagram for this cycle are shown in Fig, 11.10

Note the increase in efficiency over the efficiency of the Rankine cycle of Example 11.2.
Up to this point, the discussion and examples have tacitly assumed that the extrac-
tion steam and feedwater are mixed in the feedwater heater. Another much-used type of
feedwater heater, known as a closed heater, is one in which the steam and feedwater do
not mix. Rather, heat is transferred from the extracted steam as it condenses on the outside
of tubes while the feedwater flows through the tubes. In a closed heater, a schematic
sketch of which is shown in Fig. 11 ,1 1, the steam and feedwater may be at considerably
different pressures. The condensate may be pumped into the feedwater line, or it may be
removed through a trap to a lower-pressure heater or to the condenser. (A trap is a device
that permits liquid but not vapor to flow to a region of lower pressure.)

Let us analyze the closed feedwater heater in Fig. 11.11 when a trap with a dram to
the condenser is used. We assume we can heat the feedwater up to the temperature of the
condensing extraction flow, that is T 3 = T A = T ta as there is no drip pump. Conservation
of mass for the feedwater heater is
m 4 - m 3 = m 2 = m 5 \ m 6 = xm 5 = m 6a = m €c
Notice that the extraction flow is added to the condenser, so the flowrate at 2 is the same
as at state 5. The energy equation is
m 5 h 2 + xm 5 h 6 = m s h 3 + xm s h^ O 1 - 6 )
which we can solve for.r as

Open feedwater heaters have the advantage of being less expensive and having bet-
ter heat-transfer characteristics than closed feedwater heaters. They have the disadvantage
of requiring a pump to handle the feedwater between each heater.
In many power plants a number of stages of extraction are used, though only rarely
more than five. The number is, of course, determined by economics. It is evident tot
using a very large number of extraction stages and feedwater heaters allows the cycle effi-
ciency to approach that of the idealized regenerative cycle of Fig. 1 1 .9, where the feedwa-
ter enters the boiler as saturated liquid at the maximum pressure. In practice, however,
this could not be economically justified because the savings effected by the increase m ef-
ficiency would be more than, offset by the cost of additional equipment (feedwater heaters,
piping, and so forth). . ,
A typical arrangement of the main components in an actual power plant is shown m
Fig 1 1 12 Note that one open feedwater heater is a deaerating feedwater heater, this
heater has the dual purpose of heating and removing the air from the feedwater Unless
the air is removed, excessive corrosion occurs in the boiler. Note also that the condensate
from the high-pressure heater drains (through a trap) to the intermediate heater, and the
intermediate heater drains to the deaerating feedwater heater. The low-pressure heater
drains to the condenser.
Many actual power plants combine one reheat stage with a number of extraction
stages. The principles already considered are readily applied to such a cycle.

11.6 Deviation of Actual Cycles
from Ideal Cycles
Before we leave the matter of vapor power cycles, a few comments are in order regarding
the ways in which an actual cycle deviates from an ideal cycle. The most important of
these losses are due to the turbine, the pump(s), the pipes, and the condenser. These losses
are discussed next.
Turbine Losses
Turbine losses, as described in Section 9.5, represent by far the largest discrepancy between
the performance of a real cycle and a corresponding ideal Rankine-cycle power plant. The
large positive turbine work is the principal number in the numerator of the cycle thermal effi-
ciency and is directly reduced by the factor of the isentropic turbine efficiency. Turbine losses
are primarily those associated with the flow of the working fluid through the turbine blades
and passages, with heat transfer to the surroundings also being a loss but of secondary impor-
tance. The turbine process might be represented as shown in Fig. 11.13 where state 4 S is the
state after an ideal isentropic turbine expansion and state 4 is the actual state leaving the tur-
bine following an irreversible process. The turbine governing procedures may also cause a
loss in the turbine, particularly if a throttling process is used to govern the turbine operation.
Pump Losses
The losses in the pump are similar to those of the turbine and are due primarily to the irre-
versibilities with the fluid flow. Pump efficiency was discussed in Section 9.5, and the
ideal exit state 2 S and real exit state 2 are shown in Fig. 1 1.13. Pump losses are much
smaller than those of the turbine, since the associated work is very much smaller.
404 M CHAPTER ELEVEN POWER AND REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS
T
FIGURE 11.13
Temperature-entropy
diagram showing effect of
turbine and pump
inefficiencies on cycle
performance.
Piping Losses
Pressure drops caused by frictional effects and heat transfer to the surroundings are the
most important piping losses. Consider, for example, the pipe connecting the turbine to
the boiler. If only frictional effects occur, states a and b in Fig. 11.14 would represent
the states of the steam leaving the boiler and entering the turbine, respectively. Note
that the frictional effects cause an increase in entropy. Heat transferred to the surround-
ings at constant pressure can be represented by process be. This effect decreases en-
tropy. Both the pressure drop and heat transfer decrease the availability of the steam
entering the turbine. The irreversibility of this process can be calculated by the methods
outlined in Chapter 10.
A similar loss is the pressure drop in the boiler. Because of this pressure drop, the
water entering the boiler must be pumped to a higher pressure than the desired steam pres-
sure leaving the boiler, and this requires additional pump work.
Condenser Losses
The losses in the condenser are relatively small. One of these minor losses is the cool-
ing below the saturation temperature of the liquid leaving the condenser. This repre-
sents a loss because additional heat transfer is necessary to bring the water to its
saturation temperature.
The influence of these losses on the cycle is illustrated in the following example,
which should be compared to Example 1 1 .2.

11.7 COGENERATION
There are many occasions in industrial settings where the need arises for a specific
source or supply of energy within the environment in which a steam power plant is
being used to generate electricity. In such cases, it is appropriate to consider supply-
ing this source of energy in the form of steam that has already been expanded through
the high-pressure section of the turbine in the power plant cycle, thereby eliminat-
ing the construction and use of a second boiler or other energy source. Such an
arrangement is shown in Fig, 1 1.17, in which the turbine is tapped at some intermedi-
ate pressure to furnish the necessary amount of process steam required for the particu-
lar energy need— perhaps to operate a special process in the plant, or in many cases
simply for the purpose of space heating the facilities. This type of application is
termed cogeneration. If the system is designed as a package with both the electrical
and the process steam requirements in mind, it is possible to achieve a substantial sav-
ings in capital cost of equipment and in the operating cost, through careful considera-
tion of all the requirements and optimization of the various parameters involved.
Specific examples of cogeneration systems are considered in the problems at the end
of the chapter.

11.8 Air-Stanbard Power cycles
In Section 11.1, we considered idealized four-process cycles, including both steady-
state-process and cylinder/piston boundary-movement cycles. The question of phase-
change cycles and single-phase cycles was also mentioned. We then proceeded to
examine the Rankine power plant cycle in detail, the idealized model of a phase-change
power cycle. However, many work-producing devices (engines) utilize a working fluid
that is always a gas. The spark-ignition automotive engine is a familiar example, as are
the diesel engine and the conventional gas turbine. In all these engines there is a change
in the composition of the working fluid, because during combustion it changes from air
and fuel to combustion products. For this reason these engines are called internal-
combustion engines. In contrast, the steam power plant may be called an external-
combustion engine because heat is transferred from the products of combustion to the
working fluid. External- combustion engines using a gaseous working fluid (usually air)
have been built. To date they have had only limited application, but use of the gas-tur-
bine cycle in conjunction with a nuclear reactor has been investigated extensively.
Other external-combustion engines are currently receiving serious attention in an effort
to combat air pollution.
Because the working fluid does not go through a complete thermodynamic cycle in
the engine (even though the engine operates in a mechanical cycle), the internal-
combustion engine operates on the so-called open cycle. However, for analyzing
internal-combustion engines, it is advantageous to devise closed cycles that closely ap-
proximate the open cycles. One such approach is the air-standard cycle, which is based on
the following assumptions:
1. A fixed mass of air is the working fluid throughout the entire cycle, and the air is al-
ways an ideal gas. Thus, there is no inlet process or exhaust process.
The Brayton Cycle H 411
2. The combustion process is replaced by a process transferring heat from an external
source.
3. The cycle is completed by heat transfer to the surroundings (in contrast to the ex-
haust and intake process of an actual engine).
4. All processes are internally reversible.
5. An additional assumption is often made that air has a constant specific heat, recog-
nizing that this is not the most accurate model.
The principal value of the air- standard cycle is to enable us to examine qualitatively
the influence of a number of variables on performance. The quantitative results obtained
from the air-standard cycle, such as efficiency and mean effective pressure, will differ
from those of the actual engine. Our emphasis, therefore, in our consideration of the air-
standard cycle will be primarily on the qualitative aspects.
The term mean effective pressure (mep), which is used in conjunction with recipro-
cating engines, is defined as the pressure that, if it acted on the piston during the entire
power stroke, would do an amount of work equal to that actually done on the piston. The
work for one cycle is found by multiplying this mean effective pressure by the area of
the piston (minus the area of the rod on the crank end of a double-acting engine) and by
the stroke.
11.9 THE BRAYTON CYCLE
In discussing idealized four-steady-state-process power cycles in Section 1 1.1, a cycle in-
volving two constant-pressure and two isentropic processes was examined, and the results
are shown in Fig. 11.2. This cycle used with a condensing working fluid is the Rankine
cycle, but when used with a single-phase, gaseous working fluid it is termed the Brayton
cycle. The air-standard Brayton cycle is the ideal cycle for the simple gas turbine. The
simple open-cycle gas turbine utilizing an internal-combustion process and the simple
closed-cycle gas turbine, which utilizes heat-transfer processes, are both shown schemati-
cally in Fig. 11.18. The air-standard Brayton cycle is shown on the P-v and T-s diagrams
ofFig. 11.19.

The efficiency of the air-standard Brayton cycle is found as follows:
^ Qh C p (T, - T 2 ) T 2 (T 3 /T 2 - 1)

* ml -h l -wfc& (11 - 8)
The efficiency of the air-standard Brayton cycle is therefore a function of the
isentropic pressure ratio. The fact that efficiency increases with pressure ratio is evident
from the T—s diagram of Fig. 11.19 because increasing the pressure ratio changes the
cycle from 1-2-3-4-1 to 1—2'— 3'— 4—1. The latter cycle has a greater heat supply and
the same heat rejected as the original cycle; therefore, it has a greater efficiency. Note
that the latter cycle has a higher maximum temperature, T y> than the original cycle, T 2 .
In the actual gas turbine, the maximum temperature of the gas entering the turbine is
fixed by material considerations. Therefore, if we fix the temperature T 3 and increase
the pressure ratio, the resulting cycle is l-2'-3"-4"-l. This cycle would have a higher
efficiency than the original cycle, but the work per kilogram of working fluid is thereby
changed.
With the advent of nuclear reactors, the closed-cycle gas turbine has become more
important. Heat is transferred, either directly or via a second fluid, from the fuel in the nu-
clear reactor to the working fluid in the gas turbine. Heat is rejected from the working
fluid to the surroundings.
The actual gas-turbine engine differs from the ideal cycle primarily because of
irreversibilities in the compressor and turbine, and because of pressure drop in the
flow passages and combustion chamber (or in the heat exchanger of a closed-cycle tur-
bine). Thus, the state points in a simple open-cycle gas turbine might be as shown in
Fig. 11.20.

turbine efficiencies are

(11.9)
(11.10)
Another important feature of the Brayton cycle is the large amount of compressor work
(also called back work) compared to turbine work. Thus, the compressor might require from
40 to 80% of the output of the turbine. This is particularly important when the actual cycle is
considered because the effect of the losses is to require a larger amount of compression work
from a smaller amount of turbine work. Thus, the overall efficiency drops very rapidly with a
decrease in the efficiencies of the compressor and turbine. In fact, if these efficiencies drop
below about 60%, all the work of the turbine will be required to drive the compressor, and the
overall efficiency will be zero. This is in sharp contrast to the Rankine cycle, where only 1 or
2% of the turbine work is required to drive the pump. This demonstrates the inherent advan-
tage of the cycle utilizing a condensing working fluid, such that a much larger difference in
specific volume between the expansion and compression processes is utilized effectively.
EXAMPLE 11.6 In an air-standard Brayton cycle the air enters the compressor at 0.1 MPa and 15°C. The
pressure leaving the compressor is 1.0 MPa, and the maximum temperature in the cycle
is 1100°C. Determine
1. The pressure and temperature at each point in the cycle.
2. The compressor work, turbine work, and cycle efficiency.
For each of the control volumes analyzed, the model is ideal gas with constant
specific heat, at 300 K, and each process is steady state with no kinetic or potential en-
ergy changes. The diagram for this example is Fig. 11.19.

As stated previously, the irreversibilities decrease the turbine work and increase the
compressor work. Since the net work is the difference between these two, it decreases
very rapidly as compressor and turbine efficiencies decrease. The development of com-
pressors and turbines of high efficiency is therefore an important aspect of the develop-
ment of gas turbines.
Note that in the ideal cycle (Example 11.6) about 41% of the turbine work is re-
quired to drive the compressor and 59% is delivered as net work. In the actual turbine
(Example 1 1.7) 60% of the turbine work is required to drive the compressor and 40% is
delivered as net work. Thus, if the net power of this unit is to be 10 000 kW, a 25 000 k\V
turbine and a 15 000 kW compressor are required. This result demonstrates that a gas tur-
bine has a high back-work ratio.
11.10 THE SIMPLE GAS-TURBINE
Cycle with a Regenerator
The efficiency of the gas-turbine cycle may be improved by introducing a regenerator.
The simple open-cycle gas-turbine cycle with a regenerator is shown in Fig. 1 1.21, and
the corresponding ideal air-standard cycle with a regenerator is shown on the P-v and T-s
diagrams. In cycle l-2-x-3-4-;>-l, the temperature of the exhaust gas leaving the turbine
in state 4 is higher than the temperature of the gas leaving the compressor. Therefore, heat
can be transferred from the exhaust gases to the high-pressure gases leaving the compres-
sor. If this is done in a counterflow heat exchanger (a regenerator), the temperature of the
high-pressure gas leaving the regenerator, T x , may, m the ideal case, have a temperature
equal to T 4 , the temperature of the gas leaving the turbine. Heat transfer from the external
source is necessary only to increase the temperature from T x to T 3 . Aiea x-3-d-b-x repre-
sents the heat transferred, and area y-\—a—c—y represents the heat rejected.
The influence of pressure ratio on the simple gas-turbine cycle with a regenerator is
shown by considering cycle l-2'-3'-4-l. In this cycle the temperature of the exhaust gas
the Simple Gas-Turbine Cycle with a regenerator B 419
leaving the turbine is just equal to the temperature of the gas leaving the compressor;
therefore, utilizing a regenerator is not possible. This can be shown more exactly be deter-
mining the efficiency of the ideal gas-turbine cycle with a regenerator.
The efficiency of this cycle with regeneration is found as follows, where the states

Thus, for the ideal cycle with regeneration the thermal efficiency depends not only
on the pressure ratio but also on the ratio of the minimum to maximum temperature. We
note that, in contrast to the Brayton cycle, the efficiency decreases with an increase in
pressure ratio.
The effectiveness or efficiency of a regenerator is given by the regenerator effi-
ciency, which can best be defined by reference to Fig. 11.22. State x represents the high-
pressure gas leaving the regenerator. In the ideal regenerator there would be only an
infinitesimal temperature difference between the two streams, and the high-pressure gas
would leave the regenerator at temperature T' xi and T' x = T 4 . In an actual regenerator,

which must operate with a finite temperature difference T„ the actual temperature leaving
the regenerator is therefore less than T' x . The regenerator efficiency is defined by
lu - h-,
v (11.11)
If the specific heat is assumed to be constant, the regenerator efficiency is also given by
the relation
A higher efficiency can be achieved by using a regenerator with a greater heat-
transfer area. However, this also increases the pressure drop, which represents a loss, and
both the pressure drop and the regenerator efficiency must be considered in determining
which regenerator gives maximum thermal efficiency for the cycle. From an economic
point of view, the cost of the regenerator must be weighed against the savings that can be
effected by its use.
EXAMPLE 11.8 If an ideal regenerator is incorporated into the cycle of Example 11.6, determine the
thermal efficiency of the cycle.
The diagram for this example is Fig. 1 1 .22. Values are from Example 1 1 .6. There-
fore, for the analysis of the high-temperature heat exchanger (combustion chamber),
from the first law, we have
q H =h 3 - h x
so that the solution is

q H = J h - h x = C P (T 3 - T s ) = 1.004(1373.2 - 710.8) = 664.7 kJ/kg

GAS-TURBINE POWER CYCLE CONFIGURATIONS M 421
11.11 Gas°turbine Power cycle
Configurations
The Brayton cycle, being the idealized model for the gas-turbine power plant, has a re-
versible, adiabatic compressor and a reversible, adiabatic turbine. In the following exam-
ple, we consider the effect of replacing these components with reversible, isothermal
processes.
EXAMPLE 11.9 An air-standard power cycle has the same states as given in Example 11.6. In this
cycle, however, the compressor and turbine are both reversible, isothermal processes.
Calculate the compressor work and the turbine work, and compare with the results of
Example 11.6.
Control volumes: Compressor, turbine.
Analysis
For each reversible, isothermal process, from Eq. 9. 1 8,
compared with +664.7 kJ/kg in the adiabatic turbine.
It is found that the isothermal process would be preferable to the adiabatic process
in both the compressor and turbine. The resulting cycle, called the Ericsson cycle, consists
of two reversible, constant-pressure processes and two reversible, constant-temperature
processes. The reason that the actual gas turbine does not attempt to emulate this cycle
rather than the Brayton cycle is that the compressor and turbine processes are both high-
flow rate processes involving work-related devices in which it is not practical to attempt
to transfer large quantities of heat. As a consequence, the processes tend to be essentially
adiabatic, so that this becomes the process in the model cycle.
There is a modification of the Brayton/gas turbine cycle that tends to change its per-
formance in the direction of the Ericsson cycle. This modification is to use multiple stages
of compression with intercooling, and also multiple stages of expansion with reheat. Such
a cycle with two stages of compression and expansion, and also incorporating a regenera-
tor, is shown in Fig. 11.23. The air-standard cycle is given on the corresponding T-s dia-
gram. It may be shown that for this cycle the maximum efficiency is obtained if equal
pressure ratios are maintained across the two compressors and the two turbines. In this

equal to the temperature of the air entering the first stage of compression, T u and that the
temperature after reheating, T $ , is equal to the temperature entering the first turbine, r ? .
Furthermore, in the idea! cycle it is assumed that the temperature of the high-pressure air
leaving the regenerator, T s , is equal to the temperature of the low-pressure air leavmg the
turbine, T 9 . , t . ,
If a large number of stages of compression and expansion are used, it is evident mat
the Ericsson cycle is approached. This is shown in Fig. 11. 24. In practice, the economical
limit to the number of stages is usually two or three. The turbine and compressor losses
and pressure drops that have already been discussed would be involved in any actual unit
employing this cycle. ,
The turbines and the compressors using this cycle can be utilized m a variety ot
ways. Two possible arrangements for closed cycles are shown in Fig. 1 1.25. One ad-
vantage frequently sought in a given arrangement is ease of control of the unit under
various loads. Detailed discussion of this point, however, is beyond the scope of this
text.

11.12 The air-Standard Cycle
for jet propulsion
The next air-standard power cycle we consider is utilized in jet propulsion. In this cycle
the work done by the turbine is just sufficient to drive the compressor. The gases are ex-
panded in the turbine to a pressure for which the turbine work is just equal to the com-
pressor work. The exhaust pressure of the turbine will then be greater than that of the
surroundings, and the gas can be expanded in a nozzle to the pressure of the surroundings.
Since the gases leave at a high velocity, the change in momentum that the gases undergo
gives a thrust to the aircraft in which the engine is installed. A jet engine was shown in
Fig. 1.11, and the air-standard cycle for this situation is shown in Fig. 1 1.26. The princi-
ples governing this cycle follow from the analysis of the Brayton cycle plus that for a re-
versible, adiabatic nozzle.
THE AIR-STANDARD CYCLE FOR JET PROPULSION M 425
EXAMPLE 11.10
Consider an ideal jet propulsion cycle in which air enters the compressor at 0.1 MPa and
15°C. The pressure leaving the compressor is 1.0 MPa, and the maximum temperature is
1 100°C. The air expands in the turbine to a pressure at which the turbine work is just equal
to the compressor work. On leaving the turbine, the ah expands in a nozzle to 0.1 MPa. The
process is reversible and adiabatic. Determine the velocity of the air leaving the nozzle.
The model used is ideal gas with constant specific heat, at 300 K, and each process
is steady state with no potential energy change. The only kinetic energy change occurs
in the nozzle. The diagram is shown in Fig. 1 1.26.
The compressor analysis is the same as in Example 11.6. From the results of that
solution, we have

11.13 RECIPROCATING ENGINE POWER CYCLES
In Section 1 1.1, we discussed power cycles incorporating either steady-state processes or
cylinder/piston boundary- work processes. In that section, it was noted that for the steady-
state process, there is no work in a constant-pressure process. Each of the steady-state
power cycles presented in subsequent sections of this chapter incorporated two constant-
pressure heat-transfer processes. It was further noted in Section 11,1 that in a boundary-
movement work process, there is no work in a constant-volume process. In the next three
sections, we will present ideal air-standard power cycles for cylinder/piston boundary-
movement work processes, each example of which includes either one or two constant-
volume heat-transfer processes.
Before we describe the reciprocating engine cycles, we want to present a few com-
mon definitions and terms. Car engines typically have 4, 6, or 8 cylinders, each with a di-
ameter called bore B. The piston is connected to a crankshaft, as shown in Figure 1 1.27,
and as it rotates changing the crank angle, 0, the piston moves up or down with a stroke.

11.14 the Otto Cycle
The air-standard Otto cycle is an ideal cycle that approximates a spark-ignition internal-
combustion engine. This cycle is shown on the P-v and T-s diagrams of Fig. 11.28.
Process 1-2 is an isentropic compression of the air as the piston moves from crank-end
dead center to head-end dead center. Heat is then added at constant volume while the pis-
ton is momentarily at rest at head-end dead center. (This process corresponds to the igni-
tion of the fuel-air mixture by the spark and the subsequent burning in the actual engine.)
Process 3-4 is an isentropic expansion, and process 4-1 is the rejection of heat from the
air while the piston is at crank-end dead center.
The thermal efficiency of this cycle is found as follows, assuming constant specific
heat of air;

It is important to note that the efficiency of the air-standard Otto cycle is a function only
of the compression ratio and that the efficiency is increased by increasing the compression
ratio. Figure 11.29 shows a plot of the air-standard cycle thermal efficiency versus com-
pression ratio. It is also true of an actual spark-ignition engine that the efficiency can be
increased by increasing the compression ratio. The trend toward higher compression ra-
tios is prompted by the effort to obtain higher thermal efficiency. In the actual engine
there is an increased tendency for the fuel to detonate as the compression ratio is in-
creased. After detonation the fuel burns rapidly, and strong pressure waves present in the
engine cylinder give rise to the so-called spark knock. Therefore, the maximum compres-
sion ratio that can be used is fixed by the fact that detonation must be avoided. Advances
in compression ratios over the years in actual engines were originally made possible by
developing fuels with better antiknock characteristics, primarily through the addition of
tetraethy! lead. More recently, however, nonleaded gasolines with good antiknock charac-
teristics have been developed in an effort to reduce atmospheric contamination.
Some of the most important ways in which the actual open-cycle spark-ignition en-
gine deviates from the air-standard cycle are as follows:
1. The specific heats of the actual gases increase with an increase in temperature. ,
2. The combustion process replaces the heat-transfer process at high temperature, and
combustion may be incomplete.
The Otto Cycle 9 429
3. Each mechanical cycle of the engine involves an inlet and an exhaust process and,
because of the pressure drop through the valves, a certain amount of work is re-
quired to charge the cylinder with air and exhaust the products of combustion.
4. There will be considerable heat transfer between the gases in the cylinder and the
cylinder walls.
5. There will be irreversibilities associated with pressure and temperature gradients.
EXAMPLE 11.11 The compression ratio in an air-standard Otto cycle is 10. At the beginning of the com-
pression stoke the pressure is 0.1 MPa and the temperature is 15°C. The heat transfer to
the air per cycle is 1800 kJ/kg air. Determine

This is a high value for mean effective pressure, largely because the two constant-
volume heat transfer processes keep the total volume change to a — (compared
with a Brayton cycle, for example). Thus, the Otto cycle is a good model to emulate m
the cylinder-piston internal-combustion engine. At the other extreme, a low ™n defec-
tive pressure means a large piston displacement for a given power output, which in turn
means high frictional losses in an actual engine.
The Diesel Cycle m 431
11.15 the Diesel Cycle
The air-standard diesel cycle is shown in Fig. 11. 30. This is the ideal cycle for the diesel
engine, which is also called the compression-ignition engine.
In this cycle the heat is transferred to the working fluid at constant pressure. This
process corresponds to the injection and burning of the fuel in the actual engine. Since the
gas is expanding during the heat addition in the air-standard cycle, the heat transfer must
be just sufficient to maintain constant pressure. When state 3 is reached, the heat addition
ceases and the gas undergoes an isentropic expansion, process 3^1, until the piston
reaches crank-end dead center. As in the air-standard Otto cycle, a constant-volume rejec-
tion of heat at crank-end dead center replaces the exhaust and intake processes of the ac-
tual engine.
The efficiency of the diesel cycle is given by the relation
„ - i _ 6* - i c ^ " *i ) _ i flgyr, - i)
'* Qh C p {T, - T 2 ) kT 2 {yT 2 - 1) CU ■ 1 y)
The isentropic compression ratio is greater than the isentropic expansion ratio in the
diesel cycle. In addition, for a given state before compression and a given compression
ratio (that is 3 given states 1 and 2), the cycle efficiency decreases as the maximum temper-
ature increases. This is evident from the T-s diagram because the constant-pressure and
constant- volume lines converge, and increasing the temperature from 3 to 3' requires a
large addition of heat (area 3-3'-e-6-3) and results in a relatively small increase in work
(area 3-3'-4'-4-3).
A number of comparisons may be made between the Otto cycle and the diesel
cycle, but here we will note only two. Consider Otto cycle 1— 2— 3 W — 4— 1 and diesel cycle
1-2-3-4-1, which have the same state at the beginning of the compression stroke and the
same piston displacement and compression ratio. From the T-s diagram we see that the
Otto cycle has the higher efficiency. In practice, however, the diesel engine can operate
on a higher compression ratio than the spark-ignition engine. The reason is that in the
spark-ignition engine an air-fuel mixture is compressed, and detonation (spark knock) be-
comes a serious problem if too high a compression ratio is used. This problem does not
exist in the diesel engine because only air is compressed during the compression stroke.
432 9 CHAPTER ELEVEN POWER AND REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS
Therefore, we might compare an Otto cycle with a diesel cycle and in each case select
a compression ratio that might be achieved in practice. Such a comparison can be made by
considering Otto cycle 1—2'— 3— 4—1 and diesel cycle 1-2-3-4-1. The maximum pressure and
temperature are the same for both cycles, which means that the Otto cycle has a lower com-
pression ratio than the diesel cycle. It is evident from the T~s diagram that in this case the
diesel cycle has the higher efficiency. Thus, the conclusions drawn from a comparison of
these two cycles must always be related to the basis on which the comparison has been made.
The actual compression-ignition open cycle differs from the air-standard diesel
cycle in much the same way that the spark-ignition open cycle differs from the air-
standard Otto cycle.
EXAMPLE 11.12
An air-standard diesel cycle has a compression ratio of 20, and the heat transferred to

11.16 The Stirling Cycle
The final air-standard power cycle to be discussed is the Stirling cycle, which is shown on
the P~v and T-s diagrams of Fig. 11.31. Heat is transferred to the working fluid during
the constant-volume process 2-3 and also during the isothermal expansion process 3-4.
Heat is rejected during the constant- volume process 4-1 and also during the isothermal

compression process 1-2. Thus, this cycle is the same as the Otto cycle, with the adiabatic
processes of that cycle replaced with isothermal processes. Since the Stirling cycle in-
cludes two constant-volume heat-transfer processes, keeping the total volume change dur-
ing the cycle to a minimum, it is a good candidate for a cylinder/piston boundary work
application; it should have a high mean effective pressure.
Stirling-cycle engines have been developed in recent years as external-combustion en-
gines with regeneration. The significance of regeneration is noted from the ideal case shown
in Fig. 1 1 .3 1. Note that the heat transfer to the gas between states 2 and 3, area 2-3-&-0-2,
is exactly equal to the heat transfer from the gas between states 4 and 1, area \-4-d-c-l.
Thus, in the ideal cycle, all external heat supplied Q H takes place in the isothermal expan-
sion process 3-4, and all external heat rejection Q L takes place in the isothermal compres-
sion process 1-2. Since all heat is supplied and rejected isothermaHy, the efficiency of this
cycle equals the efficiency of a Carnot cycle operating between the same temperatures. The
same conclusions would be drawn in the case of an Ericsson cycle, which was discussed
briefly in Section 11.11, if that cycle were to include a regenerator as well.
11.17 Introduction to
Refrigeration Systems
In Section 1 U, we discussed cyclic heat engines consisting of four separate processes, ei-
ther steady-state or cylinder-piston boundary-movement work devices. We further al-
lowed for a working fluid that changes phase or for one that remains in a single phase
throughout the cycle. We then considered a power system comprised of four reversible
steady-state processes, two of which were constant-pressure heat-transfer processes, for
simplicity of equipment requirements, since these two processes involve no work. It was
further assumed that the other two work-involved processes were adiabatic and therefore
isentropic. The resulting power cycle appeared as in Fig. 1 1.2.
We now consider the basic ideal refrigeration system cycle in exactly the same terms
as those described earlier, except that each process is the reverse of that in the power cycle.
The result is the ideal cycle shown in Fig. 1 1.32. Note that if the entire cycle takes place in-
side the two-phase liquid-vapor dome, the resulting cycle is, as with the power cycle, the
Camot cycle, since the two constant-pressure processes are also isothermal. Otherwise, this
cycle is not a Carnot cycle. It is also noted, as before, that the net work input to the cycle is
equal to the area enclosed by the process lines 1-2-3-4-1, independently of whether.the
individual processes are steady state or cylinder/piston boundary movement.

In the next section, we make one modification to this idealized basic refrigera-
tion system cycle in presenting and applying the model of refrigeration and heat pump
systems.
In this section, we consider the ideal refrigeration cycle for a working substance that
changes phase during the cycle, in a manner equivalent to that done with the Rankine
power cycle in Section 1 1.2. In doing so, we note that state 3 in Fig. 1 1.32 is saturated liq-
uid at the condenser temperature and state 1 is saturated vapor at the evaporator tempera-
ture. This means that the isentropic expansion process from 3-4 will be in the two-phase
region, and the substance there will be mostly liquid. As a consequence, there will be very
little work output from this process, such that it is not worth the cost of including this
piece of equipment in the system. We therefore replace the turbine with a throttling de-
vice, usually a valve or a length of small-diameter tubing, by which the working fluid is
throttled from the high-pressure to the low-pressure side. The resulting cycle become the
ideal model for a vapor-compression refrigeration system, which is shown in Fig. 11.33.
Saturated vapor at low pressure enters the compressor and undergoes a reversible adia-
batic compression, process 1-2. Heat is then rejected at constant pressure in process 2-3,
and the working fluid exits the condenser as saturated liquid. An adiabatic throttling
process, 3^, follows, and the working fluid is then evaporated at constant pressure,
process 4—1, to complete the cycle.
The similarity of this cycle to the reverse of the Rankine cycle has already been
noted. We also note the difference between this cycle and the ideal Carnot cycle, in which
the working fluid always remains inside the two-phase region, l'-2'— 3— 4'-l'. It is much
more expedient to have a compressor handle only vapor than a mixture of liquid and
vapor, as would be required in process 1 '-2' of the Carnot cycle. It is virtually impossible
to compress, at a reasonable rate, a mixture such as that represented by state 1 ' and still
maintain equilibrium between liquid and vapor. The other difference, that of replacing the
turbine by the throttling process, has already been discussed.

The system described in Fig. 11,33 can be used for either of two purposes. The
first use is as a refrigeration system, in which case it is desired to maintain a space at a
low temperature 7\ relative to the ambient temperature T 3 . (In a real system, it would
be necessary to allow a finite temperature difference in both the evaporator and con-
denser to provide a finite rate of heat transfer in each.) Thus, the reason for building
the system in this case is the quantity q L . The measure of performance of a refrigera-
tion system is given in terms of the coefficient of performance, which was defined
in Chapter 7 as
j6=|r (11-20)
The second use of this system described in Fig. 1 1.33 is as a heat pump system, in
which case it is desired to maintain a space at a temperature T 3 above that of the ambient
(or other source) 7\, In this case, the reason for building the system is the quantity q H , and
the coefficient of performance for the heat pump, is now
)3'=f (11-21)
Refrigeration systems and heat pump systems are, of course, different in terms of
design variables, but the analysis of the two is the same. When we discuss refrigerators in
this and the following two sections, it should be kept in mind that the same comments
generally apply to heat pump systems as well.
EXAMPLE 11.13 Consider an ideal refrigeration cycle that uses R-134a as the working fluid. The temper-
ature of the refrigerant in the evaporator is -20°C, and in the condenser it is 40°C. The
refrigerant is circulated at the rate of 0.03 kg/s. Determine the coefficient of perfor-
mance and the capacity of the plant in rate of refrigeration.
The diagram for this example is as shown in Fig. 1 1.33. For each control volume
analyzed, the thermodynamic model is as exhibited in the R-134a tables. Each process is
steady state, with no changes in kinetic or potential energy.

11.19 WORKING FLUIDS FOR VAPOR-
COMPRESSION REFRIGERATION Systems
A much larger number of different working fluids (refrigerants) are utilized in vapor-
compression refrigeration systems than in vapor power cycles. Ammonia and sulfur diox-
ide were important in the early days of vapor-compression refrigeration, but both are
highly toxic and therefore dangerous substances. For many years now, the principal re-
frigerants have been the halogenated hydrocarbons, which are marketed under the trade
names of Freon and Genatron. For example, dichlorodifluoromethane (CCI 2 F 2 ) is known
as Freon-12 and Genatron- 12, and therefore as refrigerant- 12 or R-12. This group of sub-
stances, known commonly as chlorofluorocarbons or CFCs, are chemically very stable at
ambient temperature, especially those lacking any hydrogen atoms. This characteristic is
necessary for a refrigerant working fluid. This same characteristic, however, has devastat-
ing consequences if the gas, having leaked from an appliance into the atmosphere, spends
many years slowly diffusing upward into the stratosphere. There it is broken down, re-
leasing chlorine, which destroys the protective ozone layer of the stratosphere. It is there-
fore of ovenvhelrrring importance to us all to eliminate completely the widely used but
life-threatening CFCs, particularly R-l 1 and R-12, and to develop suitable and acceptable
replacements. The CFCs containing hydrogen (often termed HCFCs), such as R-22, have
shorter atmospheric lifetimes and therefore are not as likely to reach the stratosphere be-
fore being broken up and rendered harmless. The most desirable fluids, called HFCs, con-
tain no chlorine atoms at all.
There are two important considerations when selecting refrigerant working fluids:
the temperature at which refrigeration is needed and the type of equipment to be used.
As the refrigerant undergoes a change of phase during the heat-transfer process, the
pressure of the refrigerant will be the saturation pressure during the heat supply and heat
rejection processes. Low pressures mean large specific volumes and correspondingly
large equipment. High pressures mean smaller equipment, but it must be designed to
withstand higher pressure. In particular, the pressures should be well below the critical
pressure. For extremely low temperature applications a binary fluid system may be used
by cascading two separate systems.
The type of compressor used has a particular bearing on the refrigerant. Reciprocat-
ing compressors are best adapted to low specific volumes, which means higher pressures,
whereas centrifugal compressors are most suitable for low pressures and high specific
volumes.
It is also important that the refrigerants used in domestic appliances be nontoxic.
Other beneficial characteristics, in addition to being environmentally acceptable, are iras-
cibility with compressor oil, dielectric strength, stability, and low cost. Refrigerants, how-
DEVIATION OF THE ACTUAL VAPOR- COM PRESS ION REFRIGERATION CYCLE

ever, have an "unfortunate tendency to cause corrosion. For given temperatures during
evaporation and condensation, not all refrigerants have the same coefficient of perfor-
mance for the ideal cycle. It is, of course, desirable to use the refrigerant with the highest
coefficient of performance, other factors permitting.
11,20 Deviation of the Actual
vapor-compression refrigeration
Cycle from the ideal cycle
The actual refrigeration cycle deviates from the ideal cycle primarily because of pressure
drops associated with fluid flow and heat transfer to or from the surroundings. The actual
cycle might approach the one shown in Fig. 1 1 .34.
The vapor entering the compressor will probably be superheated. During the
compression process, there are irreversibilities and heat transfer either to or from the
surroundings, depending on the temperature of the refrigerant and the surroundings.
Therefore, the entropy might increase or decrease during this process, for the irre-
versibility and the heat transferred to the refrigerant cause an increase in entropy, and
the heat transferred from the refrigerant causes a decrease in entropy. These possibili-
ties are represented by the two dashed lines 1-2 and 1-2'. The pressure of the liquid
leaving the condenser will be less than the pressure of the vapor entering, and the tem-
perature of the refrigerant in the condenser will be somewhat higher than that of the
surroundings to which heat is being transferred. Usually, the temperature of the liquid
leaving the condenser is lower than the saturation temperature. It might drop some-
what more in the piping between the condenser and expansion valve. This represents a
gain, however, because as a result of this heat transfer the refrigerant enters the evapo-
rator with a lower enthalpy, which permits more heat to be transferred to the refriger-
ant in the evaporator.
There is some drop in pressure as the refrigerant flows through the evaporator. It
may be slightly superheated as it leaves the evaporator, and through heat transferred from
the surroundings its temperature will increase in the piping between the evaporator and
the compressor. This heat transfer represents a loss because it increases the work of the
compressor, since the fluid entering it has an increased specific volume.

11.21 The Ammonia Absorption
Refrigeration cycle
The ammonia absorption refrigeration cycle differs from the vapor-compression cycle in
the manner in which compression is achieved. In the absorption cycle the low-pressure
ammonia vapor is absorbed in water, and the liquid solution is pumped to a high pressure
by a liquid pump. Figure 11.35 shows a schematic arrangement of the essential elements
of such a system.
The low-pressure amrnonia vapor leaving the evaporator enters the absorber
where it is absorbed in the weak ammonia solution. This process takes place at a tem-
perature slightly higher than that of the surroundings. Heat must be transferred to the
surroundings during this process. The strong ammonia solution is then pumped through
a heat exchanger to the generator where a higher pressure and temperature are main-
tained. Under these conditions, ammonia vapor is driven from the solution as heat is
transferred from a high- temperature source. The ammonia vapor goes to the condenser
where it is condensed, as in a vapor-compression system, and then to the expansion
valve and evaporator. The weak ammonia solution is returned to the absorber through
the heat exchanger.
The distinctive feature of the absorption system is that very little work input is
required because the pumping process involves a liquid. This follows from the fact

that for a reversible steady-state process with negligible changes in kinetic and poten-
tial energy, the work is equal to - / v dP and the specific volume of the liquid is much
less than the specific volume of the vapor. However, a relatively high-temperature
source of heat must be available (100° to 200°C). There is more equipment in an ab-
sorption system than in a vapor-compression system, and it can usually be economi-
cally justified only when a suitable source of heat is available that would otherwise be
wasted. In recent years, the absorption cycle has been given increased attention in con-
nection with alternative energy sources, for example, solar energy or supplies of geo-
thermal energy.
This cycle brings out the important principle that since the shaft work in a re-
versible steady-state process with negligible changes in kinetic and potential energy is
-J v dP, a compression process should take place with the smallest possible specific
volume.
11.22 The Air-Standard
refrigeration cycle
If we consider the original ideal four-process refrigeration cycle of Fig. 11.32 with a non-
condensing (gaseous) working fluid, then the work output during the isentropic expansion
process is not negligibly small, as was the case with a condensing working fluid. There-
fore, we retain the turbine in the four-steady-state process ideal air-standard refrigeration
cycle shown in Fig. 11.36. This cycle is seen to be the reverse Brayton cycle, and it is
the ammonia absorption refrigeration Cycle ffl 443
used in practice in the liquefaction of air and other gases and also in certain special situa-
tions that require refrigeration, such as aircraft cooling systems. After compression from
states 1 to 2, the air is cooled as heat is transferred to the surroundings at temperature T .
The air is then expanded in process 3-4 to the pressure entering the compressor, and the
temperature drops to 7 4 in the expander. Heat may then be transferred to the air until tem-
perature T L is reached. The work for this cycle is represented by area 1-2—3-4—1, and the
refrigeration effect is represented by area 4-l-b-a-4. The coefficient of performance is
the ratio of these two areas.
In practice, this cycle has been used to cool aircraft in an open cycle, A simplified
form is shown in Fig. 1 1 .37. Upon leaving the expander, the cool air is blown directly into
the cabin, thus providing the cooling effect where needed.
When counterflow heat exchangers are incorporated, very low temperatures can be
obtained. This is essentially the cycle used in low-pressure air liquefaction plants and in
other liquefaction devices such as the Collins helium liquefier. The ideal cycle is as
shown in Fig. 11.38. Because the expander operates at very low temperature, the de-
signer is faced with unique problems in providing lubrication and choosing materials.

11.23 Combined-Cycle Power
and refrigeration systems
In many situations it is desirable to combine two cycles in series, either power systems or
refrigeration systems, to take advantage of a very wide temperature range or to utilize what
would otherwise be waste heat to improve efficiency. One combined power cycle, shown
in Fig. 1 1 .39 as a simple steam cycle with a mercury-topping cycle, is often referred to as a
binary cycle. The advantage of this combined system is that mercury has a very low vapor
pressure relative to that for water. Therefore, it is possible for an isothermal boiling process
in the mercury to take place at a high temperature, much higher than the critical tempera-
ture of water, but still at a moderate pressure. The mercury condenser then provides an
isothermal heat source as input to the steam boiler, such that the two cycles can be closely
matched by proper selection of the cycle variables, with the resulting combined cycle then

having a high thermal efficiency. Saturation pressures and temperatures for a typical
mercury-water binary cycle are shown in the T~s diagram of Fig. II. 39.
A different type of combined cycle that has seen considerable attention is to use the
"waste heat" exhaust from a Brayton cycle gas-turbine engine (or another combustion en-
gine such as a diesel engine) as the heat source for a steam or other vapor power cycle, in
which case the vapor cycle acts as a bottoming cycle for the gas engine, in order to im-
prove the overall thermal efficiency of the combined power system. Such a system, utiliz-
ing a gas turbine and a steam Rankine cycle, is shown in Fig. 1 1 .40. In such a combination,
there is a natural mismatch using the cooling of a noncondensing gas as the energy source
to effect an isothermal boiling process plus superheating the vapor, and careful design is
required to avoid a pinch point, a condition at which the gas has cooled to the vapor boiling
temperature without having provided sufficient energy to complete the boiling process,
j One way to take advantage of the cooling exhaust gas in the Brayton-cycle portion
I of the combined system is to utilize a mixture as the working fluid in the Rankine cycle.
! An example of this type of application is the Kalina cycle, which uses ammonia-water
I mixtures as the working fluid in the Rankine-type cycle. Such a cycle can be made very
efficient, inasmuch as the temperature differences between the two fluid streams can be
controlled through careful design of the combined system.
Combined cycles are used in refrigeration systems in cases in which there is a very
large temperature difference between the ambient surroundings and the refrigerated space.
Such a refrigeration system is often called a cascade system, an example of which is shown
in Fig. 1 1 ,4 1 . In this case, the refrigerant R-22 is used in the refrigeration system rejecting
heat to the ambient surroundings, while its evaporator picks up the heat rejected in the low-
temperature system condenser, the low temperature working fluid in this case being R-23,

whose thermodynamic properties are suited to work as a refrigerant in this low-temperafure
range. As with the other combined-cycle systems, the working fluids and design variables
must be considered very carefully to optimize the performance of each unit.
We have described only a few combined-cycle systems here, as examples of the
types of applications that can be dealt with and the resulting improvement in overall per-
formance that can occur. Obviously, many other combinations of power and refrigeration
systems are possible. Some of these are discussed in the problems at the end of the chapter.
SUMMARY a numrjer f standard power-producing cycles and refrigeration cycles are presented.
First we cover a number of stationary and mobile power-producing heat engines. The
Rankine cycle and its variations represent a steam power plant, which produces most of
the world production of electricity. The heat input can come from combustion of fossil
fuels, a nuclear reactor, solar radiation, or any other heat source that can generate a tem-
perature high enough to boil water at a high pressure. In low- or very high-temperature
applications, substances other than water can be used. Modifications to the basic cycle
such as reheat, closed, and open feedwater heaters are covered together with applications
where the electricity is cogenerated with a base demand for process steam.
A Brayton cycle is a gas turbine producing electricity and, with a modification, a jet
engine producing thrust. This is a high-power, low-mass, and low-volume device and is
used where space and weight are at a premium cost. A high back-work ratio makes this

cycle sensitive to the compressor efficiency. A number of variations and configurations
for the Brayton cycle with regenerators and intercoolers are shown.
Piston/cylinder devices are shown for the Otto and Diesel cycles modeling the gaso-
line and diesel engines, which can be two- or four-stroke engines. Cold air properties are
used to show the influence of compression ratio on the thermal efficiency, and the mean
effective pressure is used to relate the engine size to total power output. We give a short
mention of the Stirling cycle as an example of an external combustion engine.
Standard refrigeration systems are covered by the vapor-compression refrigeration
cycle. This applies to household refrigerators, air conditioners, and heat pumps as well as
commercial units to lower temperature ranges. As a special cycle, we mention the ammo-
nia absorption cycle and cover the air-standard refrigeration cycle in detail.
The chapter is completed with a short description of combined cycle applications. This
covers stacked or cascade systems for large temperature spans and combinations of different
kinds of cycles where one can be added as a topping cycle or a bottoming cycle. Often a
Rankine cycle uses exhaust energy from a Brayton cycle in larger stationary applications.

this chapter that will allow you to

system.

11.46 In one type of nuclear power plant, heat is trans-
ferred in the nuclear reactor to liquid sodium. The
liquid sodium is then pumped through a heat ex-
changer where heat is transferred to boiling water.
Saturated vapor steam at 5 MPa exits this heat ex-
changer and is then superheated to 600°C in an
external gas-fired superheater. The steam enters
the turbine, which has one (open-type) feedwater

refrigerant, which must remove 5 kW from the
cold space. Assume that the outside temperature
is 20°C. Find the flow rate of the R-12 needed,
assuming a standard vapor compression refriger-
ation cycle with a condenser at 20°C.
11.124 A refrigerator with R-12 as the working fluid has
a minimum temperature of -10°C and a maxi-
mum pressure of 1 MPa. The actual adiabatic
compressor exit temperature is 60°C. Assume no
pressure loss in the heat exchangers. Find the
specific heat transfer from the cold space and that
to the hot space, the coefficient of performance,

denser temperature of 50°C and an evaporator
temperature of 0°C. Determine the coefficient of
performance of this heat pump for the working
fluids R-12, R-22, and ammonia.
11.126 The air conditioner in a car uses R-134a, and the
compressor power input is 1.5 kW, bringing the
R-134a from 201.7 kPa to 1200 kPa by com-
pression. The cold space is a heat exchanger that
cools 30°C atmospheric air from the outside
down to 10°C and blows it into the car. What is
the mass flow rate of the R-134a, and what is the
low-temperature heat-transfer rate? What is the
mass flow rate of air at 10°C?
11.127 A refrigerator using R-134a is located in a 20°C
room. Consider the cycle to be ideal, except that
the compressor is neither adiabatic nor re-
versible. Saturated vapor at -20°C enters the
compressor, and the R-134a exits the compres-
sor at 50°C. The condenser temperature is 40°C.
The mass flow rate of refrigerant around the
cycle is 0.2 kg/s, and the coefficient of perfor-
mance is measured and found to be 2.3. Find the
power input to the compressor and the rate of
entropy generation in the compressor process.
11.128 A refrigerator has a steady flow of R-22 as satu-
rated vapor at -20°C into the adiabatic com-
pressor that brings it to 1000 kPa. After the
compressor, the temperature is measured to be
60°C. Find the actual compressor work and the
actual cycle coefficient of performance.

The evaporator temperature is 15 C, and the con-
denser temperature is 60°C. If the amonnt of hot
water needed is 0.1 kg/s, determine the amount of
energy saved by using the heat pump instead of
directly heating the water from 15 to 60°C.
11.130 The refrigerant R-22 is used as the working fluid
in a conventional heat pump cycle. Saturated
vapor enters the compressor of this unit at 10°C;
its exit temperature from the compressor is mea-
sured and found to be 85°C. If the compressor
exit is 2 MPa, what is the compressor isentropic
efficiency and the cycle COP?
11.131 A refrigerator in a laboratory uses R-22 as the
working substance. The high pressure is 1200
kPa, the low pressure is 201 kPa, and the com-
pressor is reversible. It should remove 500 W
from a specimen currently at -20°C (not equal
to T L in the cycle) that is inside the refrigerated
space. Find the cycle COP and the electrical
power required.
11.132 Consider the previous problem and find the two
rates of entropy generation in the process and
where they occur.
11.133 In an actual refrigeration cycle using R-12 as the
working fluid, the refrigerant flow rate is 0.05
kg/s. Vapor enters the compressor at 150 kPa
and - 10°C and leaves at 1.2 MPa and 75°C. The
power input to the nonadiabatic compressor is
measured and found to be 2.4 kW. The refriger-
ant enters the expansion valve at 1.15 MPa and
40°C and leaves the evaporator at 175 kPa and
- 15°C. Determine the entropy generation in the
compression process, the refrigeration capacity,
and the coefficient of performance for this cycle.
Ammonia Absorption Cycles
11.134 Consider a small ammonia absorption refrigera-
tion cycle that is powered by solar energy and is
to be used as an air conditioner. Saturated vapor
ammonia leaves the generator at 50°C, and satu-
rated vapor leaves the evaporator at 10°C. If 7000
kJ of heat is required in the generator (solar col-
lector) per kilogram of ammonia vapor generated,
determine the overall performance of this system.
11.135 The performance of an ammonia absorption
cycle refrigerator is to be compared with that of
a similar vapor-compression system. Consider
an absorption system having an evaporator tem-
perature of - 10°C and a condenser temperature
of 50°C. The generator temperature in this sys-
tem is 150°C. In this cycle 0.42 kJ is transferred
to the ammonia in the evaporator for each kilo-
joule transferred from the high-temperature
source to the ammonia solution in the generator.
To make the comparison, assume that a reser-
voir is available at 150°C and that heat is trans-
ferred from this reservoir to a reversible engine
that rejects heat to the surroundings at 25°C.
This work is then used to drive an ideal vapor-
compression system with ammonia as the refrig-
erant. Compare the amount of refrigeration that
can be achieved per kilojoule from the high tem-
perature source with the 0.42 kJ that can be
achieved in the absorption system.

pressure some of the steam is fed to an open feed-
water heater, and the remainder is reheated to

arated, and the liquid is throttled to the evapora-
tor temperature, -70°C. Vapor leaving the
evaporator is compressed to the saturation pres-
sure corresponding to -20°C, after which it is
mixed with the vapor leaving the flash chamber.
It may be assumed that both the flash chamber
and the mixing chamber are well insulated to
prevent heat transfer from the ambient. Vapor
leaving the mixing chamber is compressed in the
second stage of the compressor to the saturation

Gas Mixtures
Up to this point in our development of thermodynamics, we have considered primarily
pure substances. A large number of thermodynamic problems involve mixtures of differ-
ent pure substances. Sometimes these mixtures are referred to as solutions, particularly in
the liquid and solid phases.
In this chapter we shall turn our attention to various thermodynamic considerations
of gas mixtures. We begin with a consideration of a rather simple problem: mixtures of
ideal gases. This leads to a consideration of a simplified but very useful model of certain
mixtures, such as air and water vapor, which may involve a condensed (solid or liquid)
phase of one of the components.
12.1 GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS AND
MIXTURES OF IDEAL GASES
Let us consider a general mixture of A'" components, each a pure substance, so the total
mass and the total number of moles are
'"tot ~ m \ + m 2 + ' ' ' + m N = 2) m i
«tot = "1 + «2 + ' • ' + n N = 2 »/
The mixture is usually described by a mass fraction (concentration)
or a mole fraction for each component as
* = £ • W
which are related through the molecular weight, M h as m t ~ nftfj. We may then convert
from a mole basis to a mass basis as
and from a mass basis to a mole basis as
= A = milM ~' = m,/(M»Jtot) = C,fMt

General Considerations and Mixtures of Ideal Gases M 475
Solution
It is convenient to set up and solve this problem as shown in Table 12.1. The mass-basis
analysis is found using Eq. 12.3, as shown in the table. It is also noted that during this
calculation, the molecular weight of the mixture is found to be 30.08.
If the analysis has been given on a mass basis, and the mole fractions or percent-
ages are desired, the procedure shown in Table 12.2 is followed, using Eq. 12.4.
Consider a mixture of two gases (not necessarily ideal gases) such as shown in Fig.
12,1. What properties can we experimentally measure for such a mixture? Certainly we
can measure the pressure, temperature, volume, and mass of the mixture. We can also ex-
perimentally measure the composition of the mixture, and thus determine the mole and
mass fractions.
Suppose that this mixture undergoes a process or a chemical reaction and we wish
to perform a thermodynamic analysis of this process or reaction. What type of thermody-
namic data would we use in performing such an analysis? One possibility would be to
have tables of thermodynamic properties of mixtures. However, the number of different
mixtures that is possible, both as regards the substances involved and the relative amounts
of each, is such that we would need a library full of tables of thermodynamic properties to
handle all possible situations. It would be much simpler if we could determine the ther-
modynamic properties of a mixture from the properties of the pure components. This is in
essence the approach that is used in dealing with ideal gases and certain other simplified
models of mixtures.
One exception to this procedure is the case where a particular mixture is encoun-
tered very frequently, the most familiar being air. Tables and charts of the thermodynamic
properties of air are available. However, even in this case it is necessary to define the
composition of the "air" for which the tables are given, because the composition of the at-
mosphere varies with altitude, with the number of pollutants, and with other variables at a
given location. The composition of air on which air tables are usually based is as follows:

476 M CHAPTER TWELVE GAS MIXTURES
In this chapter we focus on mixtures of ideal gases. We assume that each compo-
nent is uninfluenced by the presence of the other components and that each component
can be treated as an ideal gas. In the case of a real gaseous mixture at high pressure, this
assumption would probably not be accurate because of the nature of the interaction be-
tween the molecules of the different components. In this text, we will consider only a sin-
gle model in analyzing gas mixtures, namely, the Dal ton model.
Dalton Model
For the Dalton model of gas mixtures, the properties of each component of the mixture
are considered as though each component exists separately and independently at the tem-
perature and volume of the mixture, as shown in Fig. 12.2. We further assume that both
the gas mixture and the separated components behave according to the ideal gas model,
Eqs. 3.3-3.6, In general, we would prefer to analyze gas mixture behavior on a mass
basis. However, in this particular case it is more convenient to use a mole basis, since the
gas constant is then the universal gas constant for each component and also for the mix-
ture. Thus, we may write for the mixture (Fig. 12,1)
PV = nRT
n = n A + n B (12.6)
and for the components (Fig. 12.2)
On substituting, we have
P A V = n A RT
P B V = n B RT (12.7)
n = n A + n B
RT RT RT
IV^ P JL + P JL ( 12.8)

where P A and P a are referred to as partial pressures. Thus, for a mixture of ideal gases, the
pressure is the sum of the partial pressures of the individual components, where, using
Eqs. 12.6 and 12.7,

That is, each partial pressure is the product of that component's mole fraction and the
mixture pressure.
In determining the internal energy, enthalpy, and entropy of a mixture of ideal
gases, the Dalton model proves useful because the assumption is made that each con-
stituent behaves as though it occupies the entire volume by itself. Thus, the internal en-
ergy, enthalpy, and entropy can be evaluated as the sum of the respective properties of the
constituent gases at the condition at which the component exists in the mixture. Since for
ideal gases the internal energy and enthalpy are functions only of temperature, it follows
that for a mixture of components A and B, on a mass basis,
U — mn = m A a A + m B u B
= m{c A u A + c B a B ) (12.11)
H -- mh — m A h A + m B h B
- m{c A h A + c s h B ) (12.12)
In Eqs. 12.11 and 12.12, the quantities u A) u B , h A , and h 3 are the ideal-gas properties of the
components at the temperature of the mixture. For a process involvirig a change of tem-
perature, the changes in these values are evaluated by one of the three models discussed in
Section 5 .7 — involving either the ideal-gas Tables A.7 or the specific heats of the compo-
nents. In a similar manner to Eqs. 12.11 and 12.12, the mixture energy and enthalpy could
be expressed as the sums of the component mole fractions and properties per mole.
The ideal-gas mixture equation of state on a mass basis is
(12.13)
where
Alternatively,
^ = - (tv = s <«*) = m ™ t ii14 )
= Wl ( m A R <i + m B R B)
= c A R A + c B R B (12.15)
The entropy of an ideal-gas mixture is expressed as
S — ms = in A s A + msS B
= ™(p A s A + CbS b ) (12.16)
It must be emphasized that the component entropies in Eq. 12.16 must each be evaluated
at the mixture temperature and the corresponding partial pressure of the component in the
mixture, using Eq. 12.10 in terms of the mole fraction.
To evaluate Eq. 12.16 using the ideal-gas entropy expression 8.24, it is necessary to
use one of the specific heat models discussed in Section 8.10. The simplest model is con-
stant specific heat, Eq. 8.25, using an arbitrary reference state T 0> P 0l s 0i for each compo-
nent /' in the mixture at T and P,

We observe here that this expression is very similar to Eq. 8.25 and that the reference val-
ues %, T , P D all cancel out, as does the mole fraction.
An alternative model is to use the s° T function defined in Eq. 8.27, in which case
each component entropy in Eq. 12.16 is expressed as
«-4.-* ta $) (12 ' 18)
The mixture entropy could also be expressed as the sum of component properties on a
mole basis.
EXAMPLE 12.2 Let a mass m A of ideal gas A at a given pressure and temperature, P and T, be mixed with
m B of ideal gas B at the same P and T, such that the final ideal-gas mixture is also at P
and T. Determine the change in entropy for this process.
Control mass: All gas (A and B).
Initial states: P, T known for A and B.
Final state: P, T of mixture known.
Analysis and Solution
The mixture entropy if given by Eq. 12.16. Therefore, the change of entropy can be
grouped into changes for A and for B, with each change expressed by Eq. 8.24. Since
there is no temperature change for either component, this reduces to
ASU = m A (o - R A In + m B (o - R 3 In ^)
- ~m A R A \viy A - m s R B \ny B
which can also be written in the form
ASU = ~n A Rlny A - n B Rhiy B
The result of Example 12.2 can readily be generalized to account for the mixing of
any number of components at the same temperature and pressure. The result is
k
The interesting thing about this equation is that the increase in entropy depends only on
the number of moles of component gases and is independent of the composition of the
General considerations and Mixtures of Ideal Gases H 479
gas. For example, when 1 mol of oxygen and 1 mol of nitrogen are mixed, the increase in
entropy is the same as when 1 mol of hydrogen and 1 mol of nitrogen are mixed. But we
also know that if 1 mol of nitrogen is "mixed" with another mole of nitrogen, there is no
increase in entropy. The question that arises is, how dissimilar must the gases be in order
to have an increase in entropy? The answer lies in our ability to distinguish between the
two gases (based on their different molecular weights). The entropy increases whenever
we can distinguish between the gases being mixed. When we cannot distinguish between
the gases, there is no increase in entropy.
One special case that arises frequently involves an ideal -gas mixture undergoing a
process in which there is no change in composition. Let us also assume that the constant
specific heat model is reasonable. For this case, from Eq. 12.1 1 on a unit mass basis, the
internal energy change is
h 2 - ui = c A C vQA (T 2 - Tj) + c B C^ B {T 2 - T x )
~ Qomix (?2 ~ ^i) (12.20)
where
Qo mix ~ C A Q'O A + c B^vOB (12.21)
Similarly, from Eq. 12.12, the enthalpy change is
h 2 ~hi = c A C^ A {T 2 - I*,) + CjC^Ti ~ Tj)
-C^^-T,) (12.22)
where
CpOmix = C ACpOA + c bCj>ob (12.23)
The entropy change for a single component was calculated from Eq. 12.17, so we
substitute this result into Eq. 12.16 to evaluate the change as
S 2 ~Si = c A (s 2 - Si) A + c B {s 2 - s{) B
- c aC{&a In y - c A R A In ~ + c B C p0 B In ~ - c B R B In y
= C^m^-^ln^ (12.24)
The last expression was using Eq. 12.15 for the mixture gas constant andEq. 12.23 for the
mixture heat capacity. We see that Eqs. 12,20, 12.22, and 12.24 are the same as those for
the pure substance, Eqs. 5.20, 5.29, and 8.25. So we can treat a mixture similarly to a pure
substance once the mixture properties are found from the composition and the component
properties in Eqs. 12.15, 12.21, and 12.23.
This also implies that all the polytropic processes in a mixture can be treated simi-
larly to the way it is done for a pure substance (recall Sections 8.10 and 8.1 1). Specifically
the isentropic process where s is constant leads to the power relation between temperature
and pressure from Eq. 12.24. This is similar to Eq. 8.29, provided we use the mixture heat
capacity and gas constant. The ratio of specific heats becomes
C

W mix ^/>mix -"-n
and the relation can then also be written as in Eq. 8.32.
480 ■ CHAPTER TWELVE GAS MIXTURES
So far we have looked at mixtures of ideal gases as a natural extension to the de-
scription of processes involving pure substances. The treatment of mixtures for nonideal
(real) gases and multiphase states is important for many technical applications, for in-
stance, in the chemical process industry. It does require a more extensive study of the
properties and general equations of state, so we will defer this subject to Chapter 13.
12.2 A Simplified model oe a Mixture
Involving Gases and a Vapor
Let us now consider a simplification, which is often a reasonable one, of the problem in-
volving a mixture of ideal gases that is in contact with a solid or liquid phase of one of
the components. The most familiar example is a mixture of air and water vapor in con-
tact with liquid water or ice, such as is encountered in air conditioning or in drying. We
are all familiar with the condensation of water from the atmosphere when it cools on a
summer day.
This problem and a number of similar problems can be analyzed quite simply and
with considerable accuracy if the following assumptions are made:
1. The solid or liquid phase contains no dissolved gases.
2. The gaseous phase can be treated as a mixture of ideal gases.
3. When the mixture and the condensed phase are at a given pressure and temperature,
the equilibrium between the condensed phase and its vapor is not influenced by the
presence of the other component. This means that when equilibrium is achieved, the
partial pressure of the vapor will be equal to the saturation pressure corresponding
to the temperature of the mixture.
Since this approach is used extensively and with considerable accuracy, let us give
some attention to the terms that have been defined and the type of problems for which
this approach is valid and relevant. In our discussion we will refer to this as a gas-vapor
mixture.
The dew point of a gas-vapor mixture is the temperature at which the vapor con-
denses or solidifies when it is cooled at constant pressure. This is shown on the T-s dia-
gram for the vapor shown in Fig. 12.3. Suppose that the temperature of the gaseous
mixture and the partial pressure of the vapor in the mixture are such that the vapor is im-
v = constant ■

A' Simplified Model of a Mixture Involving Gases and a Vapor H 481
tially supherheated at state I. If the mixture is cooled at constant pressure, the partial pres-
sure of the vapor remains constant until point 2 is reached, and then condensation begins.
The temperature at state 2 is the dew-point temperature. Lines 1-3 on the diagram indi-
cate that if the mixture is cooled at constant volume the condensation begins at point 3,
which is slightly lower than the dew-point temperature.
If the vapor is at the saturation pressure and temperature, the mixture is referred to
as a saturated mixture, and for an air-water vapor mixture, the term saturated air is used.
The relative humidity <f> is defined as the ratio of the mole fraction of the vapor in
the mixture to the mole fraction of vapor in a saturated mixture at the same temperature
and total pressure. Since the vapor is considered an ideal gas, the definition reduces to the
ratio of the partial pressure of the vapor as it exists in the mixture, P v , to the saturation
pressure of the vapor at the same temperature, P g :
4>-p-
In terms of the numbers on the T-s diagram of Fig. 12.3, the relative humidity (f>
would be
*-£
Since we are considering the vapor to be an ideal gas, the relative humidity can also be
defined in terms of specific volume or density:
< 12 - 25 >
The humidity ratio co of an air-water vapor mixture is defined as the ratio of the
mass of water vapor m u to the mass of dry air m a . The term dry air is used to emphasize
that this refers only to air and not to the water vapor. The term specific humidity is used
synonymously with humidity ratio.
» = £ (12.26)
This defmition is identical for any other gas-vapor mixture, and the subscript a
refers to the gas, exclusive of the vapor. Since we consider both the vapor and the mixture
to be ideal gases, a very useful expression for the humidity ratio in terms of partial pres-
sures and molecular weights can be developed. Writing
_P V_ P V VM U _P a V _ P a VM a
m " R V T r T ' m ° R a T Jt
we have
_P V V/B V T_RJ> V _M V P V
P a ¥IR a T RuPc MJ> a
For an air-water vapor mixture, this reduces to
(12.27)
co = 0.622 j- (12.28)
The degree of saturation is defined as the ratio of the actual humidity ratio to the hu-
midity ratio of a saturated mixture at the same temperature and total pressure.

An expression for the relation between the relative humidity <p and the humidity
ratio (o can be found by solving Eqs. 12.25 and 12.28 for P u and equating them. The re-
sulting relation for an air-water vapor mixture is
Af = aP " (12.29)
9 0.622 P g
A few words should also be said about the nature of the process that occurs when a
gas— vapor mixture is cooled at constant pressure. Suppose that the vapor is initially su-
perheated at state 1 in Fig. 12.4. As the mixture is cooled at constant pressure, the partial
pressure of the vapor remains constant until the dew point is reached at point 2, where the
vapor in the mixture is saturated. The initial condensate is at state 4 and is in equilibrium
with the vapor at state 2. As the temperature is lowered further, more of the vapor con-
denses, which lowers the partial pressure of the vapor in the mixture. The vapor that re-
mains in the mixture is always saturated, and the liquid or solid is in equilibrium with it.
For example, when the temperature is reduced to T 3> the vapor in the mixture is at state 3,
and its partial pressure is the saturation pressure corresponding to T v The liquid in equi-
librium with it is at state 5.

123 the First Law Applied to
Gas-Vapor Mixtures
In applying the first law of thermodynamics to gas-vapor mixtures, it is helpful to realize
that because of our assumption that ideal gases are involved, the various components can
be treated separately when calculating changes of internal energy and enthalpy. There-
fore, in dealing with air-water vapor mixtures, the changes in enthalpy of the water vapor
can be found from the steam tables and the ideal-gas relations can be applied to the air.
This is illustrated by the examples that follow.

humidity data. Calculate the heat transfer per kilogram of dry air, assuming that changes
in kinetic energy are negligible.

12.4 THE ADIABATIC SATURATION PROCESS
An important process for an air-water vapor mixture is theadiabatic saturation process. In
this process, a air-vapor mixture comes in contact with a body of water in a well-
insulated duct (Fig. 12.6). If the initial humidity is less than 100%, some of the water will
evaporate and the temperature of the air-vapor mixture wilt decrease. If the mixture leav-
ing the duct is saturated and if the process is adiabatic, the temperature of the mixture on
leaving is known as the adiabatic saturation temperature. For this to take place as a
steady-state process, makeup water at the adiabatic saturation temperature is added at the
same rate at which water is evaporated. The pressure is assumed to be constant.
Considering the adiabatic saturation process to be a steady-state process, and ne-
glecting changes in kinetic and potential energy, the first law reduces to
h aX + wj/iyj + (ft> 2 ~~ wife = K% + MiKt
o>,(/M " h a ) = c^(r 2 - r,) + w 2 (h v2 - h n )
«i(A„i - hi) = C pa {T 2 - T x ) + o> 2 h m (12.30)
The most significant point to be made about the adiabatic saturation process is that
the adiabatic saturation temperature, the temperature of the mixture when it leaves the
duct, is a function of the pressure, temperature, and relative humidity of the entering
air-vapor mixture and of the exit pressure. Thus, the relative humidity and the humidity
ratio of the entering air-vapor mixture can be determined from the measurements of the
pressure and temperature of the air-vapor mixture entering and leaving the adiabatic satu-
rator. Since these measurements are relatively easy to make, this is one means of deter-
mining the humidity of an air-vapor mixture.

12.5 WET-BULB AND BRY-BULB
TEMPERATURES
The humidity of air-water vapor mixtures has traditionally been measured with a device
called a psychrometer, which uses the flow of air past wet-bulb and dry-bulb thermome-
ters. The bulb of the wet-bulb thermometer is covered with a cotton wick that is saturated
with water. The dry-bulb thermometer is used simply to measure the temperature of the
air. The airflow can be maintained by a fan, as shown in the continuous-flow psychrome-
ter depicted in Fig. 12.7.
The processes that take place at the wet-bulb thermometer are somewhat compli-
cated. First, if the air-water vapor mixture is not saturated, some of the water in the wick
evaporates and diffuses into the surrounding air, which cools the water in the wick. As
soon as the temperature of the water drops, however, heat is transferred to the water from
both the air and the thermometer, with corresponding cooling. A steady state, determined
by heat and mass transfer rates, will be reached, in which the wet-bulb thermometer tem-
perature is lower than the dry-bulb temperature.
It can be argued that this evaporative cooling process is very similar, but not identi-
cal, to the adiabatic saturation process described and analyzed in Section 12.4. In fact, the
adiabatic saturation temperature is often termed the thermodynamic wet-bulb tempera-
ture. It is clear, however, that the wet-bulb temperature as measured by a psychrometer is
influenced by heat and mass transfer rates, which depend, for example, on the airflow ve-
locity and not simply on thermodynamic equilibrium properties. It does happen that the

two temperatures are very close for air-water vapor mixtures at atmospheric temperature
and pressure, and they will be assumed to be equivalent in this text.
In recent years, humidity measurements have been made using other phenomena
and other devices, primarily electronic devices for convenience and simplicity. For exam-
pie, some substances tend to change in length, in shape, or in electrical capacitance, or in
a number of other ways, when they absorb moisture. They are therefore sensitive to the
amount of moisture in the atmosphere. An instrument making use of such a substance can
be calibrated to measure the humidity of air-water vapor mixtures. The instrument output
can be programmed to furnish any of the desired parameters, such as relative humidity,
humidity ratio, or wet-bulb temperature.
12.6 The psychrometric Chart
Properties of air-water vapor mixtures are given in graphical form on psychrometric
charts. These are available in a number of different forms, and only the main features are
considered here. It should be recalled that three independent properties— such as pressure,
temperature, and mixture composition—will describe the state of this binary mixture.
A simplified version of the chart included in Appendix E, Fig. E.4, is shown in Fig.
12.8. This basic psychrometric chart is a plot of humidity ratio (ordinate) as a function of
dry-bulb temperature (abscissa), with relative humidity, wet-bulb temperature, and mix-
ture enthalpy per mass of dry air as parameters. If we fix the total pressure for' which the
chart is to be constructed (which in our chart is 1 bar, or 100 kPa), lines of constant rela-
tive humidity and wet-bulb temperature can be drawn on the chart, because for a given
dry-bulb temperature, total pressure, and humidity ratio, the relative humidity and wet-
bulb temperature are fixed. The partial pressure of the water vapor is fixed by the humid-
ity ratio and the total pressure, and therefore a second ordinate scale that indicates the
partial pressure of the water vapor could be constructed. It would also be possible to in-
clude the mixture-specific volume and entropy on the chart.
Most psychrometric charts give the enthalpy of an air-vapor mixture per kilogram
of dry air. The values given assume that the enthalpy of the dry air is zero at -20°C, and
the enthalpy of the vapor is taken from the steam tables (which are based on the assump-

variation from standard atmospheric pressures. Before using a given chart, one should
fully understand the assumptions made in constructing it and should recognize that it is
applicable to the particular problem at hand.
The direction in which various processes proceed for an air-water vapor mixture
is shown on the psychrometric chart of Fig. 12.9. For example, a constant-pressure
cooling process beginning at state 1 proceeds at constant humidity ratio to the dew
point at state 2, with continued cooling below that temperature moving along the satura-
tion line (100% relative humidity) to point 3. Other processes could be traced out in a
similar manner.
A mixture of gases is treated from the definition of the mixture composition of the various
components based on mass or based on moles. This leads to the mass fractions and mole
fractions, both of which can be called concentrations. The mixture has an overall average
molecular weight and other mixture properties on a mass or mole basis. Another simple
model includes Dalton's model of ideal mixtures of ideal gases, which leads to partial
pressures as the contribution from each component to the total pressure given by the mole
fraction. As entropy is sensitive to pressure, the mole fraction enters into the entropy gen-
eration by mixing. However, for processes other than mixing of different components, we
can treat the mixture as we treat a pure substance by vising the mixture properties.
Special treatment and nomenclature is used for moist air as a mixture of air and
water vapor. The water content is quantified by the relative humidity (how close the water
vapor is to a saturated state) or by the humidity ratio (also called absolute humidity). As
moist air is cooled down, it eventually reaches the dew point (relative humidity is 100%),
where we have saturated moist air. Vaporizing liquid water without external heat transfer
gives an adiabatic saturation process also used in a process called evaporative cooling. In
an actual apparatus, we can obtain wet-bulb and dry-bulb temperatures, indirectly measur-
ing the humidity of the incoming air. These property relations are shown in a psychromet-
ric chart.

over the evaporator cools such that liquid water
drops out, and the air continues flowing over
the condenser, as shown in Fig. PI 2. 105. For an
airflow rate of 0.2 lbm/s, the unit requires 1.2

to be produced by first cooling one stream to an
appropriate temperature to condense out the
proper amount of water and then mix this stream
adiabatically with the second one at ambient con-
ditions. What is the ratio of the two flow rates? To
what temperature must the first stream be cooled?
12.170E A 4-ft 3 insulated tank contains nitrogen gas at 30
lbf/in. 2 and ambient temperature 77 F. The tank
is connected by a valve to a supply line flowing
carbon dioxide at 180 lbf/in. 2 , 190 F. A mixture
of 50 mole percent nitrogen and 50 mole percent
carbon dioxide is to be obtained by opening the
valve and allowing flow into the tank until an ap-
propriate pressure is reached, when the valve is
closed. What is the pressure? The tank eventu-
ally cools to ambient temperature. Calculate the

12.173 The setup in Problem 12.97 is similar to a
process that can be used to produce dry powder
from a slurry of water and dry material as coffee
or milk. The water flow at state 3 is a mixture of
80% liquid water and 20% dry material on a
mass basis with = 0.4 kj/kg K. After the
water is evaporated, the dry material falls to the
bottom and is removed in an additional line,
exit at state 4. Assume a reasonable T 4 and that
state 1 is heated atmospheric air. Investigate the
inlet flow temperature as a function of state 1
humidity ratio.

much water is carried away and how much
power is needed? To increase the efficiency, a
counterflow heat exchanger is installed to pre-
heat the incoming atmospheric air up with the
hot exit flow. Estimate suitable exit tempera-
tures from the heat exchanger and investigate
the design changes to the clothes dryer. (What

12.176 Addition of steam to combustors in gas turbines

it is used for a cogenerating power plant. As-
sume 12 kg/s air with state 2 at 1.25 MPa, un-
known temperature, is mixed with 2.5 kg/s water
at 450°C at constant pressure before the inlet to
the turbine. The turbine exit temperature is T 4 =
500°C J and the pressure is 125 kPa. For a rea-
sonable turbine efficiency, estimate the required
air temperature at state 2. Compare the result to
the case where no steam is added to the mixing
chamber and only air runs through the turbine.

12 179 Several applications of dehumidification do not
rely on water condensation by cooling. A desic-

water directly from the air accompanied by a
heat release. The desiccant is then regenerated
by heating, driving the water out. Make a list of
several such materials as liquids, gels, and solids
and show examples of their use.
THERMODYNAMIC RELATIONS
We have already defined and used several thermodynamic properties. Among these are
pressure, specific volume, density, temperature, mass, internal energy, enthalpy, en-
tropy, constant-pressure and constant-volume specific heats, and the Joule-Thomson
coefficient. Two other properties, the Heimholtz function and the Gtbbs function, will
also be introduced and will be used more extensively in the following chapters. We
have also had occasion to use tables of thermodynamic properties for a number of dif-
ferent substances.
One important question is now raised: Which of the thermodynamic properties
can be experimentally measured? We can answer this question by considering the
measurements we can make in the laboratory. Some of the properties such as internal
energy and entropy cannot be measured directly and must be calculated from other ex-
perimental data. If we carefully consider all these thermodynamic properties, we con-
clude that there are only four that can be directly measured: pressure, temperature,
volume, and mass.
This leads to a second question: How can values of the thermodynamic properties
that cannot be measured be determined from experimental data on those properties that
can be measured? In answering this question, we will develop certain general thermody-
namic relations. In view of the fact that millions of such equations can be written, our
study will be limited to certain basic considerations, with particular reference to the de-
termination of thermodynamic properties from experimental data. We will also consider
such related matters as generalized charts and equations of state.
13.1 THE CLAPEYRON EQUATION
In calculating thermodynamic properties such as enthalpy or entropy in terms of other
properties that can be measured, the calculations fall into two broad categories: differ-
ences in properties between two different phases and changes within a single, homoge-
neous phase. In this section, we focus our attention on the first of these categories, that of
different phases. Let us assume that the two phases are liquid and vapor, but we will see
that the results apply to other differences as well.
Consider a Camot-cycle heat engine operating across a small temperature differ-
ence between reservoirs at T and T — A7*. The corresponding saturation pressures are P
and P - AP. The Carnot cycle operates with four steady-state devices. In the high tem-
perature heat-transfer process, the working fluid changes from saturated liquid at 1 to sat-
urated vapor at 2, as shown in the two diagrams of Fig. 13.1.

Since the heat addition process 1 - 2 is at constant pressure as well as constant temperature,
<1h = h fg = Ts fs
and the general result of Eq. 13.3 is the expression
dT v /g Tv fg
(13-4)
The Clapeyron Equation H 513
which is called the Clapeyron equation. This is a very simple relation and yet an ex-
tremely powerful one. We can experimentally determine the left-hand side of Eq. 13.4,
which is the slope of the vapor pressure as a function of temperature. We can also mea-
sure the specific volumes of saturated vapor and saturated liquid at the given temperature,
which means that the enthalpy change and entropy change of vaporization can both be
calculated from Eq. 13.4. This establishes the means to cross from one phase to another in
first- or second-law calculations, which was the goal of this development.
We could proceed along the same lines for the change of phase solid to liquid or for
solid to vapor. In each case, the result is the Clapeyron equation, in which the appropriate
saturation pressure, specific volumes, entropy change, and enthalpy change are involved.
For solid i to liquid/; the process occurs along the fusion line, and the result is
dT v if Tv if
(13.5)
We note that v if - ty - v t is typically a very small number, such that the slope of the fu-
sion line is very steep. (In the case of water, tyis a negative number, which is highly un-
usual, and the slope of the fusion line is not only steep, it is also negative.)
For sublimation, the change from solid / directly to vapor g, the Clapeyron equation
has the values
dT v ig Tv ig
A special case of the Clapeyron equation involving the vapor phase occurs at low
temperatures when the saturation pressure becomes very small. The specific volume v g is
then not only much larger than that of the condensed phase, liquid in Eq. 13.4 or solid in
Eq. 13.6, but is also closely represented by the ideal-gas equation of state. The Clapeyron
equation then reduces to the form
dT Tv fg RT * {LX,)
At low temperatures (not near the critical temperature), h fg does not change very much
with temperature. If it is assumed to be constant, then Eq. 13.7 can be rearranged and inte-
grated over a range of temperatures to calculate a saturation pressure at a temperature at
which it is not known. This point is illustrated by the following example.

Mathematical relations for a homogeneous phase H 515
13,2 Mathematical Relations
for a Homogeneous Phase
In the preceding section, we established the means to calculate differences in enthalpy (and
therefore internal energy) and entropy between different phases, in terms of properties that
are readily measured. In the following sections, we will develop expressions for calculating
differences in these properties within a singlej homogeneous phase (gas, liquid, or solid),
assuming a simple compressible substance. In order to develop such expressions, it is first
necessary to present a mathematical relation that will prove useful in this procedure.
Consider a variable (thermodynamic property) that is a continuous function of* mdy.
z =f(x,y)
It is convenient to write this function in the form
dz = Mdx + Ndy (13.8)
where
= partial derivative of z with respect to x (the variable y being held constant)
— partial derivative of z with respect to y (the variable x being held constant)
The physical significance of partial derivatives as they relate to the properties of a
pure substance can be explained by referring to Fig. 13.2, which shows a P~u-T surface
of the superheated vapor region of a pure substance. It shows constant-temperature,
constant-pressure, and constant specific volume planes that intersect at point b on the
surface. Thus, the partial derivative {dPidv) T is the slope of curve abc at point b. Line
de represents the tangent to curve abc at point b. A similar interpretation can be made
of the partial derivatives {dPidT\ and (dv!dT) p .
If we wish to evaluate the partial derivative along a constant-temperature line, the
rules for ordinary derivatives can be applied. Thus, we can write for a constant-temperature
process:
= d ll
\dvj T dv T
and the integration can be performed as usual. This point will be demonstrated later in a
number of examples.
Let us return to the consideration of the relation
dz = Mdx + Ndy
516 H Chapter Thirteen Thermodynamic Relations

of partial derivatives.
If x, y, and z are all point functions (that is, quantities that depend only on the state and are
independent of the path), the differentials are exact differentials. If this is the case, the fol-

13.3 the Maxwell Relations
Consider a simple compressible control mass of fixed chemical composition. The
Maxwell relations, which can be written for such a system, are four equations relating the
properties P,v,T f and s. These will be found to be useful in the calculation of entropy in
terms of the other, measurable properties.
THE MAXWELL RELATIONS M 517
The Maxwell relations are most easily derived by considering the different forms of
the thermodynamic property relation, which was the subject of Section 8.5. The two
forms of this expression are rewritten here as
du = Tds-Pdv (13.10)
and
dh = Tds + vdP (13.11)
Note that in the mathematical representation of Eq. 13.8, these expressions are of the form
u = 11(5, v), h = his, P)
in both of which entropy is used as one of the two independent properties. This is an un-
desirable situation in that entropy is one of the properties that cannot be measured. We
can, however, eliminate entropy as an independent property by introducing two new prop-
erties and thereby two new forms of the thermodynamic property relation. The first of
these is the Helmholtz function^,
A = U-TS, a = u~Ts (13.12)
Differentiating and substituting Eq. 13.10 results in
da = du - Tds - s dT
= -sdT~Pdv (13.13)
which we note is a form of the property relation utilizing Tand v as the independent prop-
erties. The second new property is the Gibbs function G,
G = H-TS, g = h-Ts (13.14)
Differentiating and substituting Eq. 13.11,
dg = dh ~ Tds-sdT
= ~sdT+vdP (13.15)
a fourth form of the property relation, this form using Tand P as the independent properties.
Since Eqs. 13.10, 13.11, 13.13, and 13.15 are all relations involving only proper-
ties, we conclude that these are exact differentials and, therefore, are of the general
form of Eq. 13.8,
dz = PI dx + N dy
in which Eq. 13.9 relates the coefficients M and N }

These four equations are known as the Maxwell relations for a simple compressible mass,
and the great utility of these equations will be demonstrated in later sections of this chap-
ter. As was noted earlier, these relations will enable us to calculate entropy changes in
terms of the measurable properties pressure, temperature, and specific volume.
A number of other useful relations can be derived from Eqs. 13.10, 13.1 1, 13.13,
and 13.15. For example, from Eq. 13.10, we can write the relations
iu\ = t I = -p (13.20)
Similarly, from the other three equations, we have the following

As already noted, the Maxwell relations just presented are written for a simple com-
pressible substance. It is readily evident, however, that similar Maxwell relations can be
written for substances involving other effects, such as surface or electrical effects. For ex-
ample, Eq. 8.9 can be written in the form
dU = TdS - P dV + 3" dh + SP dA + % dZ + • • ' (13.22)
Thus, for a substance involving only surface effects, we can write
dU = TdS+tfdA
and it follows that for such a substance
K dAj s \dS l
Other Maxwell relations could also be written for such a substance by writing the prop-
erty relation in terms of different variables, and this approach could also be extended to
systems having multiple effects. This matter also becomes more complex when we con-
sider applying the property relation to a system of variable composition, a topic that will
be taken up in Section 13.11.
EXAMPLE 13.2 From an examination of the properties of compressed liquid water, as given m Table

entropy of saturated liquid for a temperature of 0°C and is less than that of saturated liq-

Suppose we increase the pressure of liquid water that is initially saturated, while keeping
the temperature constant. The change of entropy for the water during this process can be
found by integrating the following Maxwell relation, Eq. 13.19:
Therefore, the sign of the entropy change depends on the sign of the term (dvIdT) P , The
physical significance of this term is that it involves the change in specific volume of water
as the temperature changes while the pressure remains constant. As water at moderate pres-
sures and 0°C is heated in a constant-pressure process, the specific volume decreases until
the point of maximum density is reached at approximately 4°C, after which it increases.
This is shown on a v~T diagram in Fig. 13.3. Thus, the quantity (du/dT) P is the slope of the
curve in Fig. 13.3. Since this slope is negative at 0°C, the quantity {dsldP) T is positive at
0°C. At the point of maximum density the slope is zero and, therefore, the constant-pressure
line shown in Fig. 8.7 crosses the saturated-liquid line at the point of maximum density.
Let us first derive two equations, one involving C p and the other involving C u .
We have denned C p as

Therefore,
From the relation
it follows that
Tds = dh-vdP

THERMODYNAMIC RELATIONS INVOLVING ENTHALPY, INTERNAL ENERGY, AND ENTROPY H 521
The information needed to integrate the first term is a constant-pressure specific
heat along one (and only one) isobar.. The integration of the second integral requires that
an equation of state giving the relation between P, v, and 7* be known. Furthermore, it is
advantageous to have this equation of state explicit in v, for then the derivative (dvidT) P
is readily evaluated.
This matter can be further illustrated by reference to Fig. 13.4. Suppose we wish to
know the change of enthalpy between states 1 and 2. We might determine this change
along path \-x-2, which consists of one isotherm, 1-x, and one isobar, x-2. Thus, we
could integrate Eq. 13.28:
The second term in this equation gives the change in enthalpy along the isotherm
1-T and the first term the change in enthalpy along the isobar x-2. When these are added
together, the result is the net change in enthalpy between 1 and 2. Therefore, the constant-
pressure specific heat must be known along the isobar passing through 2 and x. The
change in enthalpy could also be found by following path \-y-2 } in which case the con-
stant-pressure specific heat must be known along the \-y isobar. If the constant-pressure
specific heat is known at another pressure, say, the isobar passing through m-n, the
change in enthalpy can be found by following path l-m-n-2. This involves calculating
the change of enthalpy along two isotherms — \~m and n-2.
Let us now derive a similar relation for the change of internal energy. All the steps
in this derivation are given but without detailed comment. Note that the starting point is to
write u = u(T t v), whereas in the case of enthalpy the starting point was h = h(T, P).
Since T x = T x and P 2 = P„ this can be written

In a manner similar to that outlined earlier for changes in enthalpy, the change of in-
ternal energy for a given change of state for a pure substance can be determined from Eq.
13 30 if the constant-volume specific heat is known along one isometric and an equation
of state explicit in P [to obtain the derivative (dP/dT),] is available in the region involved.
A diagram similar to Fig. 13.4 could be drawn, with the isobars replaced with isometrics,
and the same general conclusions would be reached.
To summarize, we have derived Eqs. 13.26 and 13.30:

The first of these equations concerns the change of enthalpy, the constant-pressure specific
heat, and is particularly suited to an equation of state explicit in v. The second equation
concerns the change of internal energy and the constant-volume specific heat, and is partic-
ularly suited to an equation of state explicit in P. If the first of these equations is used to de-
termine the change of enthalpy, the internal energy is readily found by noting that
"2

If the second equation is used to find changes of internal energy, the change of enthalpy is
readily found from this same relation. Which of these two equations is used to determine
changes in internal energy and enthalpy will depend on the information available for spe-
cific heat and an equation of state (or other P-v-T data).
Two parallel expressions can be found for the change of entropy.

A similar coefficient can be defined for changes in volume. Such a coefficient is a

volume expansivity whicii enters into the expressions for calculating changes in enthalpy,
Eq. 13.26, and entropy, Eq. 13.32.

in terms of the adiabatic bulk modulus B s . For a compressible medium such as a gas the
speed of sound becomes modest, whereas in an incompressible state such as a liquid or a
solid it can be quite large.
The volume expansivity and isothermal and adiabatic compressibility are thermody-
namic properties of a substance, and for a simple compressible substance are functions of
two independent properties. Values of these properties are found in the standard hand-
books of physical properties. The following examples give an indication of the use and
significance of the volume expansivity and isothermal compressibility.
The pressure on a block of copper having a mass of 1 kg is increased in a reversible
process from 0.1 to 100 MPa while the temperature is held constant at 15°C. Determine
the work done on the copper during this process, the change in entropy per kilogram of
copper, the heat transfer, and the change of internal energy per kilogram.

13,6 Real-Gas Behavior
and equations of state
In Section 3.4, we examined the P-u-r behavior of gases, and we defined the compres-
sibility factor in Eq. 3.6,
We then proceeded to develop the generalized compressibility chart, presented in Ap-
pendix Fig. D.l in terms of the reduced pressure and temperature. The generalized chart
does not apply specifically to any one substance, but is instead an approximate relation
that is reasonably accurate for many substances, especially those that are fairly simple
in molecular structure. In this sense, the generalized compressibility chart can be
viewed as one aspect of generalized behavior of substances, and also as a graphical
form of equation of state representing real behavior of gases and liquids over a broad
range of variables.
To gain additional insight into the behavior of gases at low density, let us examine
the low-pressure portion of the 'generalized compressibility chart in greater detail. This
behavior is as shown in Fig. 13.5. The isotherms are essentially straight lines in this re-
gion, and their slope is of particular importance. Note that the slope increases as T r in-
creases until a maximum value is reached at a T r of about 5, and then the slope decreases
toward the Z = 1 line for higher temperatures. That single temperature, about 2.5 times
the critical temperature, for which
s(§l = (13 - 44 >
is defined as the Boyle temperature of the substance. This is the only temperature at which
a gas behaves exactly as an ideal gas at low, but finite pressures, since all other isotherms

go to zero pressure on Fig. 13.5 with a nonzero slope. To amplify this point, let us con-
sider the residual volume a,
Multiplying this equation by P we have
aP = RT-Pv
Thus, the quantity aP is the difference between RT- and Pv. Now as P -> 0, Pv -» RT.
However, it does not necessarily follow that a -> as P -» 0. Instead, it is only required
that a remain finite. The derivative in Eq. 13.44 can be written as
from which we find that a tends to zero as P -* only at the Boyle temperature, since that
is the only temperature for which the isothermal slope is zero on Fig. 13.5. It is perhaps a
somewhat surprising result that in the limit as P 0, Pv -» RT. In general, however, the
quantity (RT/P - v) does not go to zero but is instead a small difference between two
large values. This does have an effect on certain other properties of the gas.
The compressibility behavior of low-density gases as noted in Fig. 13.5 is the result
of intermolecular interactions and can be expressed in the form of equation of state called
the virial equation, which is derived from statistical thermodynamics. The result is
a

level. The general temperature dependence of the second virial coefficient is as shown for
nitrogen in Fig. 13.6. If we multiply Eq. 13.47 by RTiP, the result can be rearranged to the
form
f ~v = a^-B(T)% (13.48)
In the limit, as P -> 0,
lima = -B(T) (13.49)
P-K)
and we conclude from Eqs. 13.44 and 13.46 that the single temperature at which B{T) = 0,
Fig. 13.6, is the Boyle temperature. The second virial coefficient can be viewed as the
first-order correction for nonideality of the gas, and consequently becomes of considerable
importance and interest. In fact, the low-density behavior of the isotherms shown in Fig.
13.5 is directly attributable to the second virial coefficient.
Another aspect of generalized behavior of gases is the behavior of isotherms in the
vicinity of the critical point. If we plot experimental data on P~v coordinates, it is found
that the critical isotherm is unique in that it goes through a horizontal inflection point at
the critical point as shown in Fig. 13.7. Mathematically, this means that the first two de-
rivatives are zero at the critical point.

a feature that is used to constrain many equations of state.
To this point, we have discussed the generalized compressibility chart, a graphical
form of equation of state, and the virial equation, a theoretically founded equation of state.
We now proceed to discuss other analytical equations of state, which may be either gener-
alized behavior in form, or empirical equations, relying on specific P-u-T data of their
constants. The oldest generalized equation, the van der Waals equation, was presented in

1873 as a semitheoretical improvement over the ideal-gas model. The van der Waals
equation of state has two constants and is written as
i> = -*£« (13.52)
v ™ b v 2
The constant b is intended to correct for the volume occupied by the molecules, and the
term a/v 2 is a correction that accounts for the intermolecular forces of attraction. As might
be expected in the case of a generalized equation, the constants a and b are evaluated from
the general behavior of gases. In particular, these constants are evaluated by noting that
the critical isotherm passes through a point of inflection at the critical point and that the
slope is zero at this point. Thus, for the van der Waals equation of state we have

The numerical values in the constants have been determined by a procedure similar
to that followed in the van der Waals equation. Because of its simplicity, this equation
could not be expected to be sufficiently accurate to find use in the calculation of precision
tables of thermodynamic properties. It has, however, been used frequently for mixture
calculations and phase equilibrium correlations with reasonably good success. A number
of modified versions of this equation have also been utilized in recent years.
One of the best known empirical equations of state is the Benedict-Webb-Rubin
equation, often termed the BWR equation. The original equation, proposed in 1940, con-
taining eight empirical constants, was given in Chapter 3 as Eq. 3.9. The constants for a
number of substances are given in Appendix Table D.2. This equation, and particularly a
number of modifications to it, have been widely used over the years.
One particularly interesting modification of the BWR equation of state is the
Lee-Kesler equation, which was proposed in 1975. This equation has 12 constants and is
written in terms of generalized properties as

13,7 THE GENERALIZED CHART FOR CHANGES
OF ENTHALPY AT CONSTANT TEMPERATURE
In Section 13.4, Eq. 13.27 was derived for the change of enthalpy at constant temperature.
This equation is appropriately used when a volume-explicit equation of state is known.
Otherwise, it is more convenient to calculate the isothermal change m internal energy
fromEq. 13.31
and then calculate the change in enthalpy from its definition as

To determine the change in enthalpy behavior consistent with the generalized chart
Fie D 1 we follow the second of these approaches, since the Lee-Kesler generalized
equation' of state, Eq. 13.60, is a pressure-explicit form in terms of specific volume and
temperature. Equation 13.60 is expressed in terms of the compressibility factor Z, so we
write

It is now necessary to assume a final temperature and to check whether the net
change in enthalpy for the process is zero. Let us assume that T 2 = 146 K. Then the
change in enthalpy between 1* and 2* can be found from the zero-pressure, specific-
heat data.

It essentially checks. We conclude that the final temperature is approximately 146 K. It
is interesting that the thermodynamic tables for nitrogen, Table B.6, give essentially this
same value for the final temperature.

JVhen this expression is integrated from a given state (P n v' r ) to the ideal-gas limit
V r U,v r -> oo), there is a problem because ideal-gas entropy is a function of pres-
sure and approaches infinity as the pressure approaches zero. We can eliminate this prob-
lem with a two-step procedure. First, the integral is taken only to a certain finite P* v'*
which gives the entropy change " r '
This integration by itself is not entirely acceptable, because it contains the entropy at
some arbrtrary, low-reference pressure. A value for the reference pressure would have to
be specified. Let us now repeat the integration over the same change of state, except this
time for a hypothetical ideal gas. The entropy change for this integration is

If we now subtract Eq. 13.65 from Eq. 13.64, the result is the difference in entropy of a

13.9 developing Tables
OF THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES
FROM EXPERIMENTAL DATA
For a given pure substance, tables of thermodynamic properties can be developed from
experimental data in many ways. This section conveys some general principles and con-
cepts by considering only the liquid and vapor phases.
Let us assume that the following data for a pure substance have been obtained in the
laboratory.
1. Vapor-pressure data. That is, saturation pressures and temperatures have been mea-
sured over a wide range.
2. Pressure, specific volume, and temperature data in the vapor region. These data are
usually obtained by determining the mass of the substance in a closed vessel (which
means a fixed specific volume) and then measuring the pressure as the temperature
is varied. This is done for a large number of specific volumes.
3. Density of the saturated liquid and the critical pressure and temperature.
4. Zero-pressure specific heat for the vapor. This might be obtained either calorimetri-
cally or from spectroscopic data and statistical thermodynamics (see Appendix C).
From these data a complete set of thermodynamic tables for the saturated liquid,
saturated vapor, and superheated vapor can be calculated. The first step is to determine an
equation for the vapor-pressure curve that accurately fits the data. It may be necessary to
use one equation for one portion of the vapor-pressure curve and a different equation for
another portion.
One form of equation that has been used is
\nP^ = A + f+C\nT+DT
Once an equation has been found that accurately represents the data, the saturation pressure
for any given temperature can be found by solving this equation. Thus, the saturation pres-

ia 539
sures in Table B.l.l of the Steam Tables would be determined for the given temperatures.
The second step is to determine an equation of state for the vapor region that accurately rep-
resents the P-o-T data. There are many possible forms of the equation of state that may be
selected. The important considerations are that the equation of state accurately represents
the data, and that it be of such a form that the differentiations required can be performed.
That is, though it may be desirable to have an equation of state that is explicit in v, as a func-
tion of TandP, in order to use Eq. 13.27, such a representation is inherently not the most ac-
curate. Instead, the most accurate form is one explicit in P, as a function of Tand v.
Once an equation of state has been determined, the specific volume of superheated
vapor at given pressures and temperatures can be determined by solving the equation and
tabulating the results as in the superheat tables for steam, ammonia, and the other sub-
stances listed in the appendix. The specific volume of saturated vapor at a given tempera-
ture may be found by determining the saturation pressure from the vapor-pressure curve
and substituting this saturation pressure and temperature into the equation of state.
The procedure followed in determining enthalpy and entropy is best explained with
the aid of Fig. 13,11. Let us assume that the enthalpy and entropy of saturated liquid in
state 1 are zero. The enthalpy of saturated vapor in state 2 can be found from the Clapeyron
equation.
The left side of this equation is found by differentiating the vapor-pressure curve. The
specific volume of the saturated vapor is found by the procedure outlined in the last para-
graph, and it is assumed that the specific volume of the saturated liquid has been mea-
sured. Thus, the enthalpy of evaporation, hj gi can be found for this particular temperature,
and the enthalpy at state 2 is equal to the enthalpy of evaporation (since the enthalpy in
state 1 is assumed to be zero). The entropy at state 2 is readily found, since
From state 2 we proceed along this isotherm into the superheated vapor region. The
specific volume at 3 is found from the equation of state at this pressure (by iteration, since

the equation is explicit in P, not u). The internal energy and entropy are calculated by in-
tegrating Eqs. 13.31 and 13.35, and the enthalpy is then calculated from its definition:
The properties at point 4 are found in exactly the same manner. Pressure P 4 is sufficiently
low that the real superheated vapor behaves essentially as an ideal gas (perhaps 1 kPa).
Thus, we use this constant-pressure line to make all temperature changes for our calcula-
tions, as, for example, to point 5. Since the specific heat is known as a function of
temperature, the enthalpy and entropy at 5 are found by integrating the ideal-gas relations
The properties at points 6 and 7 are found from those at 5 in the same manner as those at
points 3 and 4 were found from 2. (The saturation pressure P 7 is calculated from the
vapor-pressure equation.) Finally, the enthalpy and entropy for saturated liquid at point 8
are found from the properties at point 7 by applying the Ciapeyron equation.
Thus, values for the pressure, temperature, specific volume, enthalpy, entropy, and
internal energy of saturated liquid, saturated vapor, and superheated vapor can be tabulated
for the entire region for which experimental data were obtained. The accuracy of such a
table depends both on the accuracy of the experimental data and the degree to which the
equation for the vapor pressure and the equation of state represent the experimental data.
Finally, it should be noted that most present-day development of thermodynamic
property tables follows a somewhat different line, beginning with representation of the
Helmholtz function a (Eqs. 13.12 and 13.13) as an empirical function of T and u (or p).
This representation implicitly includes the ideal-gas specific heat. The function typically
includes 40 or 50 terms altogether, and the empirical constants are determined from spe-
cific heat terms and P-v-T data. Differentiating this expression with respect to v yields
the equation of state explicit in P (see Eq. 13.21), while differentiating with respect to T
yields s (also Eq. 13.21). Finally, u can be calculated from Eq. 13.12, and h from its defin-
ition. This approach to property calculation requires no mathematical integrations, such as
are required in Eqs. 13.31 and 13.35.
13.10 the property relation
for Mixtures
In Chapter 12 our consideration of mixtures was limited to ideal gases. There was no need
at that point for further expansion of the subject. We now continue this subject with a
view toward developing the property relations for mixtures. This subject will be particu-
larly relevant to our consideration of chemical equilibrium in Chapter 15.
h 2 = Ui-u 2 + P 3 u 3 - P z v 2
The Property Relation for Mixtures m 541
For a mixture, any extensive property X is a function of the temperature and pres-
sure of the mixture and the number of moles of each component. Thus, for a mixture of
two components,
X=f(T,P,n Al n B )
Therefore,
Since at constant temperature and pressure an extensive property is directly propor-
tional to the mass, Eq. 13.67 can be integrated to give
X TP ^ X A n A + X B n B (13.68)
where
Here X is defined as the partial molal property for a component in a mixture. It is
particularly important to note that the partial molal property is defined under conditions of
constant temperature and pressure.
The partial molal property is particularly significant when a mixture undergoes a
chemical reaction. Suppose a mixture consists of components^ and B, and a chemical re-
action takes place so that the number of moles of A is changed by dn A and the number of
moles of B by dn B . The temperature and the pressure remain constant. What is the change
in internal energy of the mixture during this process? From Eq. 13.67 we conclude that
dU ZP = U A dn A + U B dn B (13.69)
where U A and U B are the partial molal internal energy of A and B, respectively. Equation
13.69 suggests that the partial molal internal energy of each component can also be de-
fined as the internal energy of the component as it exists in the mixture.
In Section 13.3 we considered a number of property relations for systems of fixed
mass such as
dU = TdS~PdV
In this equation, temperature is the intensive property or potential function associated
with entropy, and pressure is the intensive property associated with volume. Suppose we
have a chemical reaction such as described in the last paragraph. How would we modify
this property relation for this situation? Intuitively, we might write the equation
dU =TdS~PdV+ n A dn A + ijl b dn B (13.70)
where fi A is the intensive property or potential function associated with n A , and similarly
fi B for n B . This potential function is called the chemical potential.
To derive an expression for this chemical potential, we examine Eq. 13.70 and con-
clude that it might be reasonable to write an expression for Um the form
U=f(S t V,n A , n B )
542 B CHAPTER THIRTEEN THERMODYNAMIC RELATIONS
Therefore,
dU Jm ds+m) dv+lf] dn A + [m <*«
Since the expressions

imply constant composition, it follows from Eq. 13.20 that
m = T and m) =-P
Thus
dU = TdS~PdV + (jg) dn A + (§) dn B (13.71)
On comparing this equation with Eq. 13.70, we find that the chemical potential can
be defined by the relation
We can also relate the chemical potential to the partial molat Gibbs function. We
proceed as follows.
G = U+PV- TS
dG = dU + PdV+VdP-TdS~SdT
Substituting Eq. 13.70 into this relation, we have
dG = S dT + V dP + fx A dn A + {x B dn B (13.73)
This equation suggests that we write an expression for G in the following form.
G=f(T,P, n A ,n B )
Proceeding as we did for a similar expression for internal energy, we have
dG = i d A dT-v( d A dP + (f) dn A + l^) dn B

When this equation is compared with Eq. 13.73, it follows that
Because partial molal properties are defined at constant temperature and pres-
sure, the quantities (3G/dn A ) T ^ g and {dGidn B ) T ^ A are the partial molal Gibbs functions

for the two components. That is, the chemical potential is equal to the partial molal
Gibbs function.
^-feL; *-^teL (13 ' 74)
Although ft can also be defined in terms of other properties, such as inEq. 13.72, this ex-
pression is not the partial molal internal energy, since the pressure and temperature are
not constant .in this partial derivative. The partial molal Gibbs function is an extremely
important property in the thermodynamic analysis of chemical reactions, for at constant
temperature and pressure (the conditions under which many chemical reactions occur) it
is a measure of the chemical potential or the driving force that tends to make a chemical
reaction take place.
13.11 Pseudopure substance models
for Real-Gas Mixtures
A basic prerequisite to the treatment of real-gas mixtures in terms of pseudopure sub-
stance models is the concept and use of appropriate reference states. As an introduction to
this topic, let us consider several preliminary reference state questions for a pure sub-
stance undergoing a change of state, for which it is desired to calculate the entropy
change. We can express the entropy at the initial state 1 and also at the final state 2 in
terms of a reference state 0, in a manner similar to that followed when dealing with the
generalized-chart corrections. It follows that
*i = j + (sf tTo - s ) + (j* ri - sfc) + (s v - st (T ) (13.75)
*2 = *o + (s%t, ~ %> + (st 2 r, ~ sl T ) + {s 2 - sl T ) (13.76)
These are entirely general expressions for the entropy at each state in terms of an arbitrary
reference state value and a set of consistent calculations from that state to the actual de-
sired state. One simplification of these equations would result from choosing the reference
state to be a hypothetical ideal-gas state atP and T Q , thereby making the term
C*Vi " %> = (13.77)
in each equation, which results in
*o = J* (13.78)
It should be apparent that this choice is a reasonable one, since whatever value is chosen
for the correction term, Eq. 13.77, it will cancel out of the two equations when the change
S2 - Si is calculated, and the simplest value to choose is zero. In a similar manner, the
simplest value to choose for the ideal-gas reference value, Eq. 13.78, is zero, and we
would commonly do that if there are no restrictions on choice, such as occur in the case of
a chemical reaction.
Another point to be noted concerning reference states is related to the choice of P
and T . For this purpose, let us substitute Eqs. 13.77 and 13.78 into Eqs. 13.75 and 13.76,
544 B Chapter Thirteen thermodynamic relations
and also assume constant specific heat, such that those equations can be written in the
form
4 + C p0 In - R In (jg + - s% T ) (13-79)
W + q- m g) - R m (§) + - -fc) (13-80)
Since the choice for P and T a is arbitrary if there are no restrictions, such as would be the
case with chemical reactions, it should be apparent from examining Eqs. 13.79 and 13.80
that the simplest choice would be for
P = Pi or P 2 To^T, or T 2
It should be emphasized that inasmuch as the reference state was chosen as a hypothetical
ideal gas at P , r , Eq. 13.77, it is immaterial how the real substance behaves at that pres-
sure and temperature. As a result, there is no need to select a low value for the reference
state pressure P .
Let us now extend these reference state developments to include real-gas mixtures.
Consider the mixing process shown in Fig. 13.12, with the states and amounts of each
substance as given on the diagram. Proceeding with entropy expressions as was done ear-
lier, we have
- H + *U i« (£) ^ * ft) + < 5 > - ^ (1381)

c^=y^y s c p% ( 13 - 85 >
When Eqs. 13.81-13.83 are substituted into the equation for the entropy change,
the arbitrary reference values tf , sf , P , and 7 all cancel out of the result, which is, of
course necessary in view of their arbitrary nature. An ideal-gas entropy of mixing expres-
sion, the final term in Eq. 13.84, remains in the result, establishing, in effect, the mixture
reference value relative to its components. The remarks made earlier concerning the
choices for reference state and the reference state entropies apply in this situation as well.

PSEUDOPURE SUBSTANCE MODELS FOR REAL-GAS MIXTURES M 545
To summarize the development to this point, we find that a calculation of real mix-
ture properties, as, for example, using Eq. 13.83, requires the establishment of a hypothet-
ical ideal gas reference state, a consistent ideal-gas calculation to the conditions of the
real mixture, and finally a correction that accounts for the real behavior of the mixture at
that state. This last term is the only place that the real behavior is introduced, and this is
therefore the term that must be calculated by the pseudopure substance model to be used.
In treating a real-gas mixture as a pseudopure substance, we will follow two ap-
proaches to represent the P~v~T behavior: rise of the generalized charts and use of an ana-
lytical equation of state. With the generalized charts, we need to have a model that
provides a set of pseudocritical pressure and temperature in terms of the mixture compo-
nent values. Many such models have been proposed and utilized over the years, but the
simplest is that suggested by W. B. Kay in 1936, in which
CcXnl* =2,y l P e „ (n)mk = (13.86)
i i
This is the only pseudocritical model that we will consider in this chapter. Other models
are somewhat more complicated to evaluate and use, but considerably more accurate.
The other approach to be considered is that of using an analytical equation of state,
in which the equation for the mixture must be developed from that for the components. In
other words, for an equation in which the constants are known for each of the compo-
nents, we must develop a set of empirical combining rules that will then give a set of con-
stants for the mixture as though it were a pseudopure substance. This problem has been
studied for many equations of state, using experimental data for the real-gas mixtures, and
various empirical rules have been proposed. For example, for both the van der Waals
equation, Eq. 13.52, and the Redlich-Kwong equation, Eq. 13.57, the two pure substance
constants a and b are commonly combined according to the relations
= (l) cfi)^j b m = 2 ctb t (13.87)
The following example illustrates the use of these two approaches to treating real-gas
mixtures as pseudopure substances.
EXAMPLE 13,7 A mixture of 80% C0 2 and 20% CH 4 (mass basis) is maintained at 310.94 K, 86.19 bar,

pseudocritical model, Eq. 13.86. Use of an accurate pseudocritical model and the
generalized chart would reduce the error to approximately 1%.

As a point of interest from the ideal-gas law, v = 0.00919 m 3 /kg, which is a devia-
tion of 36% from the measured value. Also, if we use the Redlich-Kwong equation of
state, and follow the same procedure as for the van der Waals equation, the calculated
specific volume of the mixture is 0.00652 mVkg, which is in error by 3 .5%.
We must be careful not to draw too general a conclusion from the results of this
example. We have calculated percent deviation in v at only a single point for only one
mixture. We do note, however, that the various methods used give quite different re-
sults. From a more general study of these models for a number of mixtures, we find that
the results found here are fairly typical, at least qualitatively. Kay's rule is very useful
548 B CHAPTER THIRTEEN THERMODYNAMIC RELATIONS
because it is fairly accurate and yet relatively simple. The van der Waals equation is too
simplified an expression to accurately represent P-v-T behavior, but it is useful to
demonstrate the procedures followed in utilizing more complex analytical equations or
state. The Redlich-Kwong equation is considerably better and is still relatively simple
t0 US< As noted in the example, the more sophisticated generalized behavior models and
empirical equations of state will represent mixture P-u-T behavior to within abou I A
over a wide range of density, but they are of course more difficult to use than the methods
considered in Example 13.7. The generalized models have the advantage of being easier
to use and they are suitable for hand computations. Calculations with the complex empir-
ical equations of state become very involved, but have the advantage of expressing the
P-v-T composition relations in analytical form, which is of great value when usmg a dig-
ital computer for such calculations.
SUMMARY As an intro duction to the development of property information that can be obtained exper-
imentally, we derive the Clapeyron equation. This equation relates the slope of the two-
phase boundaries in the P-T diagram to the enthalpy and specific volume change going
from one phase to the other. If we measure pressure, temperature, and the specific vol-
umes for liquid and vapor in equilibrium, we can calculate the enthalpy of evaporation.
Because thermodynamic properties are functions of two variables, a number of relations
can be derived from the mixed second derivatives and the Gibbs relations, which are
known as Maxwell relations. Many other relations can be derived, and those that are use-
ful let us relate thermodynamic properties to those that can be measured directly like P, v,
r, and indirectly like the heat capacities.
Changes of enthalpy, internal energy, and entropy between two states are presented
as integrals over properties that can be measured and thus obtained from experimental
data Some of the partial derivatives are expressed as coefficients like expansivity and
compressibility, with the process as a qualifier like isothermal or isentropic (adiabatic).
These coefficients, as single numbers, are useful when they are nearly constant over some
range of interest, which happens for liquids and solids and thus are found in various hand-
books. The speed of sound is also a property that can be measured, and it relates to a par-
tial derivative in a nonlinear fashion.
The experimental information about a substance behavior is normally correlated in
an equation of state relating P-*-T to represent part of the thermodynamic surface. Start-
ing with the general compressibility and its extension to the virial equation of state, we
lead up to other more complex equations of state (EOS). We show the most versatile
equations such as the van der Waals EOS, the Redlich-Kwong EOS, and the -Lee-Keslei
EOS which is shown as an extension of Benedict-Webb-Rubin (BWR), with others that
are presented in Appendix D. The most accurate equations are too complex for hand cal-
culations and are used on computers to generate tables of properties. Therefore, we do not
cover those details. , ,
As an application of Lee-Kesler EOS for a simple fluid, we present the develop-
ment of the generalized charts that can be used for substances for which we do not
have a table. The charts express the deviation of the properties from an ideal gas m
terms of a compressibility factor (Z) and the enthalpy and entropy departure terms
These charts are in dimensionless properties based on the properties at the critical
point.
key concepts and formulas H 549
Properties for mixtures are introduced in general, and the concept of a partial molal
property leads to the chemical potential derived from the Gibbs function. Real mixtures
are treated on a mole basis, and we realize that a model is required to do so. We present a
pseudocritical model of Kay that predicts the critical properties for the mixture and then

A special application requires R-12 at -140°C. It
is known that the triple-point temperature is
— 157°C. Find the pressure and specific volume of
the saturated vapor at the required condition.
Ice (solid water) at -3°C, 100 kPa, is compressed
isothermally until it becomes liquid. Find the re-
quired pressure.
An approximation for the saturation pressure can be
In P^ t = A — BIT, where A and B are constants.
Which phase transition is that suitable for, and what
kind of property variations are assumed?
In a Carnot heat engine, the heat addition changes
the working fluid from saturated liquid to satu-
rated vapor at T t P. The heat rejection process oc-
curs at lower temperature and pressure {T ~ AT),
(P — AP). The cycle takes place in a piston cylin-
der arrangement where the work is boundary
work. Apply both the first and second law with
simple approximations for the integral equal to
work. Then show that the relation between AP
and AT results in the Clapeyron equation in the
limit Ar-> dT.
Calculate the values h fg and Sf g for nitrogen at
70 K and at 110 K from the Clapeyron equation,
using the necessary pressure and specific volume
values from Table B.6.1.
Ammonia at — 70°C is used in a special applica-
tion at a quality of 50%. Assume the only table
available is B.2 that goes down to -50°C. To size
a tank to hold 0.5 kg with x = 0.5, give your best
estimate for the saturated pressure and the tank
volume.
The saturation pressure can be approximated as -
In P^ t = A — B/T, where A and B are constants.
Use the steam tables and determine A and B from
properties at 25°C only. Use the equation to pre-
dict the saturation pressure at 30°C and compare
to table value.
Using the properties of water at the triple point,
develop an equation for the saturation pressure
along the fusion line as a function of temperature.
Helium boils at 4.22 K at atmospheric pressure,
101.3 kPa, with h fg =83.3 kJ/kmol. By pumping
a vacuum over liquid helium, the pressure can be
lowered, and it may then boil at a lower tempera-
ture. Estimate the necessary pressure to produce a
boiling temperature of 1 K and one of 0.5 K.
13.30 A certain refrigerant vapor enters a steady-flow
constant-pressure condenser at 150 kPa, 70°C, at
a rate of 1.5 kg/s, and it exits as saturated liquid.
Calculate the rate of heat transfer from the con-
denser. It may be assumed that the vapor is an
ideal gas and also that at saturation, v f < v g . The
following is known:
tnP g = 8.15 - 1000/r = 0.7 kj/kg K
with pressure in kPa and temperature in K. The
molecular weight is 100.
13.31 Using thermodynamic data for water from Tables
B.I.I and B.1.5, estimate the freezing tempera-
ture of liquid water at a pressure of 30 MPa.
13.32 Small solid particles formed in combustion
should be investigated. We would like to know
the sublimation pressure as a function of tempera-
ture. The only information available is 7*, h fs for
boiling at 101.3 kPa and T, h if for melting at 101.3
kPa. Develop a procedure that will allow a deter-
mination of the sublimation pressure, P^ h (T).
13.33 A container has a double wall where the wall cav-
ity is filled with carbon dioxide at room tempera-
ture and pressure. When the container is filled
with a cryogenic liquid at 100 K, the carbon diox-
ide will freeze so that the wall cavity has a mix-
ture of solid and vapor carbon dioxide at the
sublimation pressure. Assume that we do not have
data for C0 2 at 100 K, but it is known that at
-90°C: P mb = 38.1 kPa, h ig = 574.5 kj/kg. Esti-
mate the pressure in the wall cavity at 100 K.

perature with pressure in a constant entropy

valve connecting the cylinder to a line flowing
nitrogen gas at T t = 20°C, P t = 1 MPa, is
opened and nitrogen flows in. When the valve is
closed, the cylinder contains a gas mixture of
50% nitrogen, 50% propane, on a mole basis at
T 2 = 20°C, P 2 = 500 kPa. What is the cylinder
volume at the final state, and how much heat
transfer took place?
13.104 Consider the following reference state conditions:
the entropy of real saturated liquid methane at
- 100°C is to be taken as 100 kJ/kmol K, and the
entropy of hypothetical ideal gas ethane at
-100°C is to be taken as 200 kJ/kmol K. Calcu-
late the entropy per kmol of a real-gas mixture of
50% methane, 50% ethane (mole basis) at 20°C,

ture behavior.

P = o, Z ~ 1 to the critical point P - P Ci Z = Z c

straight line will be tangent to one particular

determined value is about 0.8 T e .) Determine
what value of reduced temperature is predicted
by an equation of state, using the van der Waals

also note for Problem 13.56.
13.108 A 200-L rigid tank contains propane at 400 K,
3.5 MPa. A valve is opened, and propane flows
out until half the initial mass has escaped, at
which point the valve is closed. During this
process the mass remaining inside the tank ex-
pands according to the relation Pv lA - constant.
Calculate the heat transfer to the tank during the
process.
13.109 A newly developed compound is being consid-
ered for use as the working fluid in a small
Rankine-cycle power plant driven by a supply of
waste heat. Assume the cycle is ideal, with satu-
rated vapor at 200°C entering the turbine and
saturated liquid at 20°C exiting the condenser.
The only properties known for this compound
are molecular weight of 80 kg/kmol, ideal-gas
heat capacity C p0 = 0.80 kJ/kg K and T c = 500
K, P c = 5 MPa. Calculate the work input, per

13.110 A piston/cylinder contains propane initially at

piston cross-sectional area is 0,2 m 2 , The exter-
nal force on the piston is gradually reduced to a
final value of 85 kN during which process the
propane expands to ambient temperature, 4°C.
Any heat transfer to the propane comes from a
constant-temperature reservoir at 67°C, while
any heat transfer from the propane goes to the
ambient. It is claimed that the propane does 30
kJ of work during the process. Does this violate
the second law?

should not exceed 1 MPa, what is the maximum
percent of liquid by volume that can be used
during the experiment?
13.114 The refrigerant R-152a, difluoroethane, is tested
by the following procedure. A 1 0-L evacuated
tank is connected to a line flowing saturated-
vapor R-152a at 40°C. The valve is opened, and
the fluid flows in rapidly, so the process is essen-
tially adiabatic. The valve is to be closed when
the pressure reaches a certain value P 2f and the
tank will then be disconnected from the line.
After a period of time, the temperature inside the
• tank will return to ambient temperature, 25°C,
through heat transfer with the surroundings. At
this time, the pressure inside the tank must be
500 kPa. What is the pressure P 2 at which the
valve should be closed during the filling

period of time, after which the valve is closed.
Eventually, the whole system cools to ambient
temperature, 0°C, at which time it contains
one-fourth liquid and three-fourths vapor, by
volume. For the overall process, calculate the
heat transfer from the tank and the net change
of entropy.
13.117 A 10-m 3 storage tank contains methane at low
temperature. The pressure inside is 700 kPa,
and the tank contains 25% liquid and 75%
vapor, on a volume basis. The tank warms very
slowly because heat is transferred from the
ambient.

Chemical reactions
Many thermodynamic problems involve chemical reactions. Among the most familiar
of these is the combustion of hydrocarbon fuels, for this process is utilized in most of
our power-generating devices. However, we can all think of a host of other processes
involving chemical reactions, including those that occur in the human body.
This chapter considers a first- and second-law analysis of systems undergoing a
chemical reaction. In many respects, this chapter is simply an extension of our previous
consideration of the first and second laws. However, a number of new terms are intro-
duced, and it will also be necessary to introduce the third law of thermodynamics.
In this chapter the combustion process is considered in detail. There are two rea-
sons for this emphasis. First, the combustion process is of great significance in many
problems and devices with which the engineer is concerned. Second, the combustion
process provides an excellent vehicle for teaching the basic principles of the thermody-
namics of chemical reactions. The student should keep both of these objectives in mind
as the study of this chapter progresses.
Chemical equilibrium will be considered in Chapter 15 and, therefore, the matter of
dissociation will be deferred until then.
14.1 Fuels
A thermodynamics textbook is not the place for a detailed treatment of fuels. How-
ever, some knowledge of them is a prerequisite to a consideration of combustion, and
this section is therefore devoted to a brief discussion of some of the hydrocarbon
fuels. Most fuels fall into one of three categories — coal, liquid hydrocarbons, or gaseous
hydrocarbons.
Coal consists of the remains of vegetation deposits of past geologic ages, after sub-
jection of biochemical actions, high pressure, temperature, and submersion. The charac-
teristics of coal vary considerably with location, and even within a given mine there is
some variation in composition.
The analysis of a sample of coal is given on one of two bases: the proximate analy-
sis specifies, on a mass basis, the relative amounts of moisture, volatile matter, fixed car-
bon, and ash; the ultimate analysis specifies, on a mass basis, the relative amounts of
carbon, sulfur, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and ash. The ultimate analysts may be given
on an "as-received" basis or on a dry basis. In the latter case, the ultimate analysis does
not include the moisture as determined by the proximate analysis.
A number of other properties of coal are important in evaluating a coal for a given
use. Some of these are the fusibility of the ash, the grindabiiity or ease of pulverization,
the weathering characteristics, and size.

Most liquid and gaseous hydrocarbon fuels are a mixture of many different hydro-
carbons. For example, gasoline consists primarily of a mixture of about 40 hydrocarbons,
with many others present in very small quantities. In discussing hydrocarbon fuels, there-
fore, brief consideration should be given to the most important families of hydrocarbons,
which are summarized in Table 14.1.
Three concepts should be defined. The first pertains to the structure of the mole-
cule. The important types are the ring and chain structures; the difference between
the two is illustrated in Fig. 14.1. The same figure illustrates the definition of saturated
and unsaturated hydrocarbons. An unsaturated hydrocarbon has two or more adjacent
carbon atoms joined by a double or triple bond, whereas in a saturated hydrocarbon
all the carbon atoms are joined by a single bond. The third term to be defined is an
isomer. Two hydrocarbons with the same number of carbon and hydrogen atoms
and different structures are called isomers. Thus, there are several different octanes
(C 8 H 18 ), each having 8 carbon atoms and 18 hydrogen atoms, but each with a different
structure.
The various hydrocarbon families are identified by a common suffix. The com-
pounds comprising the paraffin family all end in "-ane" (as propane and octane). Simi-
larly, the compounds comprising the olefin family end in "-ylene" or "-ene" (as propene
and octene), and the diolefin family ends in "-diene" (as butadiene). The naphthene family
has the same chemical formula as the olefin family but has a ring rather than chain struc-
ture. The hydrocarbons in the naphthene family are named by adding the prefix "cyclo-"
(as cyclopentane).
The aromatic family includes the benzene series (QH^) and the naphthalene se-
ries (CA- 12 ). The benzene series has a ring structure and is unsaturated.

Alcohols are sometimes used as a fuel in internal combustion engines. Characteris-
tically, in the alcohol family, one of the hydrogen atoms is replaced by an OH radical.
Thus, methyl alcohol, also called methanol, is CH 3 OH.
Most liquid hydrocarbon fuels are mixtures of hydrocarbons that are derived
from crude oil through distillation and cracking processes. Thus, from a given crude
oil, a variety of different fuels can be produced, some of the common ones being gaso-
line, kerosene, diesel fuel, and fuel oil. Within each of these classifications there is a
wide variety of grades, and each is made up of a large number of different hydrocar-
bons. The important distinction between these fuels is the distillation curve, Fig. 14.2.
The distillation curve is obtained by slowly heating a sample of fuel so that it vapor-
izes. The vapor is then condensed and the amount measured. The more volatile hydro-
carbons are vaporized first, and thus the temperature of the nonvaporized fraction
increases during the process. The distillation curve, which is a plot of the temperaUire
of the nonvaporized fraction versus the amount of vapor condensed, is an indication of
the volatility of the fuel.
For the combustion of liquid fuels, it. is convenient to express the composition in
terms of a single hydrocarbon, even though it is a mixture of many hydrocarbons. Thus,
gasoline is usually considered to be octane, C 8 H IS , and diesel fuel is considered to be do-
decane, C I2 H 26 . The composition of a hydrocarbon fuel may also be given in terms of per-
centage of carbon and hydrogen.
The two primary sources of gaseous hydrocarbon fuels are natural gas wells and
certain chemical manufacturing processes. Table 14.2 gives the composition of a number
of gaseous fuels. The major constituent of natural gas is methane, which distinguishes it
from manufactured gas.
At the present time, considerable effort is being devoted to develop more economi-
cal processes for producing gaseous and also liquid hydrocarbon fuels from coal, oil
shale, and tar sands deposits. Several alternative techniques have been demonstrated to be
feasible, and these resources promise to provide an increasing proportion of our fuel sup-
ply in future years.

14,2 THE COMBUSTION PROCESS
The combustion process consists of the oxidation of constituents in the fuel that are capa-
ble of bebg oxidized and can therefore be represented by a chemical equation. During
combustion process, the mass of each element remains the same. Thus, writing chemical
Ztns and solving problems concerning quantities of the various constituents basically
involve the conservation of mass of each element. This chapter presents a brief review of
this subject, particularly as it applies to the combustion process.
Consider first the reaction of carbon with oxygen.
Reactants Products
c + o 2 -> co 2
This equation states that 1 kmol of carbon reacts with 1 kmol of oxygen to form 1 kmol of
carbon d oxide. This also means that 12 kg of carbon react with 32 kg of oxygen to form
44 kg of carbon dioxide. All the initial substances that undergo the combustion proce
are called the reactants, and the substances that result from the combustion process are
^"^meratyLcarbon fuel is burned, both the carbon and the hydrogen are oxidized.
Consider the combustion of methane as an example.
CH 4 + 20 2 ->C0 2 + 2H 2 (14-1)
Here the products of combustion include both carbon dioxide and water The water may
be in the vapor, liquid, or solid phases, depending on the temperature and.pressure of the
^tT^L process, many intermediate products are formed during the
chemical reaction. In this book we are concerned with the initial and final products and
the Combustion process M 565
not with the intermediate products, but this aspect is very important in a detailed consider-
ation of combustion.
In most combustion processes, the oxygen is supplied as air rather than as pure oxy-
gen. The composition of air on a molal basis is approximately 21% oxygen, 78% nitro-
gen, and 1% argon. We assume that the nitrogen and the argon do not undergo chemical
reaction (except for dissociation, which will be considered in Chapter 15). They do leave
at the same temperature as the other products, however, and therefore undergo a change
of state if the products are at a temperature other than the original air temperature. At the
high temperatures achieved in internal-combustion engines, there is actually some reac-
tion between the nitrogen and oxygen, and this gives rise to the air pollution problem as-
sociated with the oxides of nitrogen in the engine exhaust.
In combustion calculations concerning air, the argon is usually neglected, and the
air is considered to be composed of 21% oxygen and 79% nitrogen by volume. When this
assumption is made, the nitrogen is sometimes referred to as atmospheric nitrogen. At-
mospheric nitrogen has a molecular weight of 28.16 (which takes the argon into account)
as compared to 28.013 for pure nitrogen. This distinction will not be made in this text, and
we will consider the 79% nitrogen to be pure nitrogen.
The assumption that air is 21.0% oxygen and 79.0% nitrogen by volume leads to the
conclusion that for each mole of oxygen, 79.0/21.0 = 3.76 moles of nitrogen are in-
volved. Therefore, when the oxygen for the combustion of methane is supplied as air, the
reaction can be written
CH 4 + 20 2 + 2(3.76)N 2 C0 2 + 2H 2 + 7.52N 2 (14.2)
The minimum amount of air that supplies sufficient oxygen for the complete com-
bustion of all the carbon, hydrogen, and any other elements in the fuel that may oxidize is
called the theoretical air. When complete combustion is achieved with theoretical air, the
products contain no oxygen. A general combustion reaction with a hydrocarbon fuel and
air is thus written
CJty + v 0i (0 2 + 3.76N 2 ) v COi C0 2 + v Ui0 H 2 + v N N 2 (14.3)
with the coefficients to the substances called stoichiometric coefficients. The balance of
atoms yields the theoretical amount of air as
C: v COi = x
H: 2v Hfi =y
N 2 : v Ni = 3.76 X v 0i
2 : v 0i = v C o 2 + v Hj0 /2 - x + y/4
and the total number of moles of air for 1 mole of fuel becomes
"air = v 0i X 4.76 = 4.76(x + y4)
This amount of air is equal to 100% theoretical air. In practice, complete combustion is
not likely to be achieved unless the amount of air supplied is somewhat greater than the
theoretical amount. Two important parameters often used to express the ratio of fuel
and air are the air-fuel ratio (designed AF) and its reciprocal, the fuel-air ratio (desig-
566 9 CHAPTER FOURTEEN CHEMICAL REACTIONS
nated FA). These ratios are usually expressed on a mass basis, but a mole basis is used
at times.
(M - 5)
They are related through the molecular weights as
,„ _ '"air _ thijMak _ , F
and a subscript s is used to indicate the ratio for 100% theoretical air, also called a stoi-
chiometric mixture. In an actual combustion process, an amount of air is expressed as a
fraction of the theoretical amount, called percent theoretical air. A similar ratio named
the equivalence ratio equals the actual fuel-air ratio divided by the theoretical fuel-air
ratio as
$ - FA/FA, = AFJAF (14.6)
the reciprocal of percent theoretical air. Since the percent theoretical air and the equiva-
lence ratio are both ratios of the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio and the actual air-fuel ratio,
the molecular weights cancel out and they are the same whether a mass basis or a mole
basis is used.
Thus, 150% theoretical air means that the air actually supplied is 1.5 times the theo-
retical air and the equivalence ratio is % The complete combustion of methane with
150% theoretical air is written
CH 4 + 1.5 X 2(0 2 + 3.76N 2 ) C0 2 + 2H 2 + 2 + 1 1.28N 2 (14.?)
having balanced all the stoichiometric coefficients from conservation of all the atoms.
The amount of air actually supplied may also be expressed in terms of percent ex-
cess an. The excess air is the amount of air supplied over and above the theoretical air.
Thus, 150% theoretical air is equivalent to 50% excess air. The terms "theoretical air"
"excess air," and "equivalence ratio" are all in current usage and give an equivalent infor-
mation about the reactant mixture of fuel and air.
When the amount of air supplied is less than the theoretical air required, the com-
bustion is incomplete. If there is only a slight deficiency of air, the usual result is that
some of the carbon unites with the oxygen to form carbon monoxide (CO) instead of car-
bon dioxide (C0 2 ). If the air supplied is considerably less than the theoretical air, there
may also be some hydrocarbons in the products of combustion.
Even when some excess air is supplied, small amounts of carbon monoxide may be
present, the exact amount depending on a number of factors including the mixing and tur-
bulence during combustion. Thus, the combustion of methane with 1 10% theoretical air
might be as follows:
CH 4 + 2(U)0 2 + 2(l.l)3.76N 2 ->
+0.95 C0 2 + 0.05 CO + 2H 2 + 0.225 2 +■ 8.27 N 2 (14.8)

solved gases and therefore may be quite corrosive. For this reason the products of com-
bustion are often kept above the dew point until discharged to the atmosphere.

To calculate the theoretical air requirement, let us write the combustion equation for the
combustible substances in 1 kmol of fuel.

An analysis of the products of combustion affords a very simple method for calcu-
lating the actual amount of air supplied in a combustion process. There are various experi-
mental methods by which such an analysis can be made. Some yield results on a "dry"
basis, that is, the fractional analysis of all the components, except for water vapor. Other
experimental procedures give results that include the water vapor. In this presentation we
are not concerned with the experimental devices and procedures, but rather with the use
of such information in a thermodynamic analysis of the chemical reaction. The following
examples illustrate how an analysis of the products can be used to determine the chemical
reaction and the composition of the fuel.
The basic principle in using the analysis of the products of combustion to obtain the
actual fuel-air ratio is conservation of the mass of each of the elements. Thus, in changing
from reactants to products, we can make a carbon balance, hydrogen balance, oxygen bal-
ance, and nitrogen balance (plus any other elements that may be involved). Furthermore,
we recognize that there is a definite ratio between the amounts of some of these elements.
Thus, the ratio between the nitrogen and oxygen supplied in the air is fixed, as well as the
ratio between carbon and hydrogen if the composition of a hydrocarbon fuel is known.
Often the combustion of a fuel uses atmospheric air as the oxidizer, in which case
the reactants also hold some water vapor. Assuming we know the humidity ratio for the
moist air, w, then we would like to know the composition of air per mole of oxygen as
1 2 + 3.76N 2 + xH 2
Since the humidity ratio is, io — mjm ai the number of moles of water is

and the number of moles of dry air per mole of oxygen is (1 + 3.76)/l, so we get
-w4.76~- 7.655w (14.9)

This amount of water is found in the products together with the water produced by the ox-
idation of the hydrogen in the fuel.

Solution
The solution consists of writing the combustion equation for 100 kmol of dry products,
introducing letter coefficients for the unknown quantities, and then solving for them.
From the analysis of the products, the following equation can be written, keeping
in mind that this analysis is on a dry basis.

A balance for each of the elements will enable us to solve for all the unknown co-
efficients:
Nirogen balance: c = 87.1
Since all the nitrogen comes from the air,
T = 3.76 b = f^U 23.16

Carbon balance: a = 10.00 + 0.53 = 10.53
Hydrogen balance: d — 2a = 21.06
Oxygen balance: All the unknown coefficients have been solved for, and therefore
the oxygen balance provides a check on the accuracy. Thus, b can also be determined by
an oxygen balance
b = 10.00 + + 237 + = 23 - 16
Substituting these values for a, b, c, and d, we have

10.0CO 2 + 0.53CO + 2.370 2 + 21.06H 2 O + 87.1N 2

14.3 ENTHALPY OF FORMATION
In the first thirteen chapters of this book, the problems always concerned a fixed chemical
composition and never a change of composition through a chemical reaction. Therefore,
in dealing with a thermodynamic property, we used tables of thermodynamic properties
for the given substance, and in each of these tables the thermodynamic properties were
given relative to some arbitrary base. In the steam tables, for example, the internal energy
of saturated liquid at 0.0 1°C is assumed to be zero. This procedure is quite adequate when
there is no change in composition because we are concerned with the changes in the prop-
erties of a given substance. The properties at the condition of the reference state cancel
out in the calculation. When dealing with the matter of reference states in Section 13.1 1,
we noted that for a given substance (perhaps a component of a mixture), we are free to
choose a reference state condition, for example, a hypothetical ideal gas, as long as we
then carry out a consistent calculation from that state and condition to the real desired
state. We also noted that we are free to choose a reference state value, as long as there is
no subsequent inconsistency in the calculation of the change in a property because of a
chemical reaction with a resulting change in the amount of a given substance. Now that
we are to include the possibility of a chemical reaction, it will become necessary to
choose these reference state values on a common and consistent basis. We will use as our
reference state a temperature of 25°C, a pressure of 0. 1 MPa, and a hypothetical ideal-gas
condition for those substances that are gases.
Consider the simple steady-state combustion process shown in Fig. 14.3. This ideal-
ized reaction involves the combustion of solid carbon with gaseous (ideal gas) oxygen,
each of which enters the control volume at the reference state, 25°C and 0.1 MPa. The
carbon dioxide (ideal gas) formed by the reaction leaves the chamber at the reference
state, 25°C and 0.1 MPa. If the heat transfer could be accurately measured, it would be

25°C, 0.1 MPa
found to be -393 522 kJ/kmol of carbon dioxide formed. The chemical reaction can be
written
c + o 2 -> co 2
Applying the first law to this process we have
Q CmY . + H R =H P (14.10)
where the subscripts R and P refer to the reactants and products, respectively. W will find
it convenient to also write the first law for such a process in the form
&v +2«A- = 2«A 04.11)
R P
where the summations refer, respectively, to all the reactants or all the products.
Thus, a measurement of the heat transfer would give us the difference between the
enthalpy of the products and the reactants, where each is at the reference state condition.
Suppose, however, that we assign the value of zero to the enthalpy of all the elements at
the reference state. In this case, the enthalpy of the reactants is zero, and
= H p = -393 522 kJ/kmol
The enthalpy of (hypothetical) ideal-gas carbon dioxide at 25°C, 0.1 MPa pressure (with
reference to this arbitrary base in which the enthalpy of the elements is chosen to be zero),
is called the enthalpy of formation. We designate this with the symbol h f . Thus, for car-
bon dioxide
h} = -393 522 kJ/kmol
The enthalpy of carbon dioxide in any other sate, relative to this base in which the
enthalpy of the elements is zero, would be found by adding the change of enthalpy be-
tween ideal gas at 25°C, 0.1 MPa, and the given state to the enthalpy of formation. That is,
the enthalpy at any temperature and pressure, h TPs is
(14.12)
where the term (AA) 2 9s, o.iMPa-»r,/> represents the difference in enthalpy between any given
state and the enthalpy of ideal gas at 298. 15 K, 0. 1 MPa. For convenience we usually drop
the subscripts in the examples that follow.
The procedure that we have demonstrated for carbon dioxide can be applied to any
compound.
Table A. 10 gives values of the enthalpy of formation for a number of substances in
the units kJ/kmol (or Btu/lb mol in F. 1 1).

574 H CHAPTER FOURTEEN CHEMICAL REACTIONS
Three further observations should be made in regard to enthalpy of formation.
1. We have demonstrated the concept of enthalpy of formation in terms of the mea-
surement of the heat transfer in an idealized chemical reaction in which a compound
is formed from the elements. Actually, the enthalpy of formation is usually found
by the application of statistical thermodynamics, using observed spectroscopic data.
2. The justification of this procedure of arbitrarily assigning the value of zero to the en-
thalpy of the elements at 25°C, 0.1 MPa, rests on the fact that in the absence of nu-
clear reactions the mass of each element is conserved in a chemical reaction. No
conflicts or ambiguities arise with this choice of reference state, and it proves to be
very convenient in studying chemical reactions from a thermodynamic point of view.
3. In certain cases an element or compound can exist in more than one state at 25°C,
0.1 MPa. Carbon, for example, can be in the form of graphite or diamond. It is es-
sential that the state to which a given value is related be clearly identified. Thus, in
Table A. 1 0, the enthalpy of formation of graphite is given the value of zero, and the
enthalpy of each substance that contains carbon is given relative to this base. An-
other example is that oxygen may exist in the monatomic or diatomic form, and also
as ozone, 3 . The value chosen as zero is for the form that is chemically stable at
the reference state, which in the case of oxygen is the diatomic form. Then each of
the other forms must have an enthalpy of formation consistent with the chemical re-
action and heat transfer for the reaction that produces that form of oxygen.
It will be noted from Table A. 10 that two values are given for the enthalpy of forma-
tion for water; one is for liquid water and the other for gaseous (hypothetical ideal gas)
water, both at the reference state of 25°C, 0.1 MPa. It is convenient to use the hypothetical
ideal-gas reference in connection with the ideal-gas table property changes given in Table
A.9, and to use the real liquid reference in connection with real water property changes as
given in the steam tables, Table B.l. The real-liquid reference state properties are obtained
from those at the hypothetical ideal-gas reference by following the procedure of calculation
described in Section 13.11. The same procedure can be followed for other substances that
have a saturation pressure less than 0.1 MPa at the reference temperature of 25°C.
Frequently, students are bothered by the minus sign when the enthalpy of formation
is negative. For example, the enthalpy of formation of carbon dioxide is negative. This is
quite evident because the heat transfer is negative during the steady-flow chemical reac-
tion, and the enthalpy of the carbon dioxide must be less than the sum of enthalpy of the
carbon and oxygen initially, both of which are assigned the value of zero. This is quite
analogous to the situation we would have in the steam tables if we let the enthalpy of satu-
rated vapor be zero at 0. 1 MPa pressure. In this case the enthalpy of the liquid would be
negative, and we would simply use the negative value for the enthalpy of the liquid when
solving problems.
14.4 first-Law analysis
of Reacting Systems
The significance of the enthalpy of formation is that it is most convenient in performing a
first-law analysis of a reacting system, for the enthalpies of different substances can be
added or subtracted, since they are all given relative to the same base.

In such problems, we will write the first law for a steady-state, steady- flow process
in the form

where and P refer to the reactants and products, respectively. In each problem it is nec-
essary to choose one parameter as the basis of the solution. Usually this is taken as 1 kmol
of fuel.

In most instances, however, the substances that comprise the reactants and products
in a chemical reaction are not at a temperature of 25°C and a pressure of 0. 1 MPa (the
state at which the enthalpy of formation is given). Therefore, the change of enthalpy be-
tween 25°C and 0.1 MPa and the given state must be known. For a solid or liquid, this
576 S Chapter Fourteen CirEMicAL Reactions
change of enthalpy can usually be found from a table of thermodynamic properties or
from specific heat data. For gases, the change of enthalpy can usually be found by one of
the following procedures.
1. Assume ideal-gas behavior between 25°C, 0.1 MPa, and the given state. In this
case, the enthalpy is a function of the temperature only and can be found by an

(which assumes ideal-gas behavior). Table A.6 gives an equation for C pQ for a num-
ber of substances and Table A.9 gives values of h° — /*2 9S (that is, the A/z of Eq.

A°9S') The superscript is used to designate that this is the enthalpy at 0.1 MPa pres-
sure, based on ideal-gas behavior, that is, the standard-state enthalpy.
2. If a table of thermodynamic properties is available, A/i can be found directly from
these tables if a real substance behavior reference state is being used, such as that
described above for liquid water. If a hypothetical ideal-gas reference state is being
used, then it is necessary to account for the real substance correction to properties at
that sate to gain entry to the tables.
3. If the deviation from ideal-gas behavior is significant, but no tables of thermody-
namic properties are available, the_value of Lh can be found from the generalized
tables or charts and the values for or Lh at 0. 1 MPa pressure as indicated above.

3. Using the steam tables, either the liquid reference or the gaseous reference state may
be used.
For the liquid, ~
Ah = 18.015(2977.5 - 104.9) = 51 750 kJ/kmol
h TtP - -285 830 + 51 750 = -234 080 kJ/kmol
For the gas,
AA = 18.015(2977.5 - 2547.2) = 7752 kJ/kmol
Ajy = -241 826 + 7752 = -234 074 kJ/kmol
The very small difference results from using the enthalpy of saturated vapor at 25°C
(which is almost but not exactly an ideal gas) in calculating the Ah.

Enthalpy and Internal energy of Combustion; Heat of Reaction ffl 581
For a real-gas mixture, a pseudocritical method such as Kay's rule, Eq. 13.86 could
be used to evaluate the nonideal-gas contribution to enthalpy at the temperature and pres-
sure of the mixture and this value added to the ideal-gas mixture enthalpy at that tempera-
ture, as in the procedure developed in Section 13.11.
14.5 Enthalpy and Internal Energy
of combustion; heat of reaction
The enthalpy of combustion, hgp, is defined as the difference between the enthalpy of the
products and the enthalpy of the reactants when complete combustion occurs at a given
temperature and pressure. That is,
hgp — Hp — H R
T'rp = + AA) tf - 2 n$f + AA), (14.14)
P R
The usual parameter for expressing the enthalpy of combustion is a unit mass of
fuel, such as a kilogram (hgp) or a kilomole (hgp) of fuel.
As the enthalpy of formation is fixed, we can separate the terms as
H=rf + AH
where
t% = 2 Aflp = 2 «i Aft,
p p
Now the difference in enthalpies is written
H P - H R = Hi - H° R + AH F - AH R
- hgp + AH P - AH R (14.15)
explicitly showing the reference enthalpy of combustion, ft^, and the two departure
terms Ai/p and AH R . The latter two terms for the products and reactants are nonzero if
they exist at a state other than the reference state.
The tabulated values of the enthalpy of combustion of fuels are usually given for a
temperature of 25°C and a pressure of 0. 1 MPa. The enthalpy of combustion for a number
of hydrocarbon fuels at this temperature and pressure, which we designate h Rm> is given
in Table 14.3.
The internal energy of combustion is defined in a similar manner.

EntiIalpy and Internal energy of Combustion; Heat of Reaction
h 583
When all the gaseous constituents can be considered as ideal gases, and the volume
of the liquid and solid constituents is negligible compared to the value of the gaseous con-
stituents, this relation for reduces to
U RP ~ h$P ~ ^("gastous products ~ "gaseous reactanls) (14.17)
Frequently the term 'Seating value" or "heat of reaction" is used. This represents
the heat transferred from the chamber during combustion or reaction at constant tempera-
ture. In the case of a constant pressure or steady- flow process, we conclude from the first
law of thermodynamics that it is equal to the negative of the enthalpy of combustion. For
this reason, this heat transfer is sometimes designated the constant-pressure heating value
for combustion processes.
In the case of a constant-volume process, the heat transfer is equal to the negative of
the internal energy of combustion. This is sometimes designated the constant-volume
heating value in the case of combustion.
When the term heating value is used, the terms "higher" and "lower" heating value
are used. The higher heating value is the heat transfer with liquid water in the products,
and the lower heating value is the heat transfer with vapor water in the products.
EXAMPLE 14.10 Calculate the enthalpy of combustion of propane at 25°C on both a kilomole and kilo-
gram basis under the following conditions.

14.6 Adiabatic Flame temperature
Consider a given combustion process that takes place adiabatically and with no work or
changes in kinetic or potential energy involved. For such a process the temperature of
the products is referred to as the adiabatic flame temperature. With the assumptions of
no work and no changes in kinetic or potential energy, this is the maximum temperature
that can be achieved for the given reactants because any heat transfer from the reacting
substances and any incomplete combustion would tend to lower the temperature of the
products.
For a given fuel and given pressure and temperature of the reactants, the maxi-
mum adiabatic flame temperature that can be achieved is with a stoichiometric mixture.
The adiabatic flame temperature can be controlled by the amount of excess air that is
used. This is important, for example, in gas turbines, where the maximum permissible
586 H CHAPTER FOURTEEN CHEMICAL REACTIONS
temperature is determined by metallurgical considerations in the turbine, and close con-
trol of the temperature of the products is essential.
Example 14.12 shows how the adiabatic flame temperature may be found. The dis-
sociation that takes place in the combustion products, which has a significant effect on the
adiabatic flame temperature, will be considered in the next chapter.
EXAMPLE 14.12 Liquid octane at 25°C is burned with 400% theoretical air at 25°C in a steady-state
process. Determine the adiabatic flame temperature.

+ 37.5(22 710) + 188(21 461)
= 62 487 kJ/kmol fuel
Since H P = H R ~ -250 105 kJ/kmol, we find by linear interpolation that the adiabatic
flame temperature is 961.8 K. Because the ideal-gas enthalpy is not really a linear func-
tion of temperature, the true answer will be slightly different from this value.
14.7 The third Law of Thermodynamics
and Absolute Entropy
As we consider a second-law analysis of chemical reactions, we face the same problem we
had with the first law: What base should be used for the entropy of the various substances?
This problem leads directly to a consideration of the third law of thermodynamics.
The third law of thermodynamics was formulated during the early part of the twenti-
eth century. The initial work was done primarily by W. H. Nernst (1864-1941) and Max
Planck (1 858-1947). The third law deals with the entropy of substances at the absolute "zero
of temperature and in essence states that the entropy of a perfect crystal is zero at absolute
zero. From a statistical point of view, this means that the crystal structure has the maximum
degree of order. Furthermore, because the temperature is absolute zero, the thermal energy
is minimum. It also follows that a substance that does not have a perfect crystalline structure
at absolute zero, but instead has a degree of randomness, such as a solid solution or a glassy
solid, has a finite value of entropy at absolute zero. The experimental evidence on which the
third law rests is primarily data on chemical reactions at low temperatures and measure-
ments of heat capacity at temperatures approaching absolute zero. In contrast to the first and
second laws, which lead, respectively, to the properties of internal energy and entropy, the
third law deals only with the question of entropy at absolute zero. However, the implica-
tions of the third law are quite profound, particularly in respect to chemical equilibrium.
The particular relevance of the third law is that it provides an absolute base from
which to measure the entropy of each substance. The entropy relative to this base is
termed the absolute entropy. The increase in entropy between absolute zero and any given
state can be found either from calorimetric data or by procedures based on statistical ther-
modynamics. The calorimetric method gives precise measurements of specific-heat data
over the temperature range, as well as of the energy associated with phase transforma-
tions. These measurements are in agreement with the calculations based on statistical
thermodynamics and observed molecular data.
Table A.10 gives the absolute entropy at 25°C and 0.1-MPa pressure for a number of
substances. Table A.9 gives the absolute entropy for a number of gases at 0.1-MPa pressure
and various temperatures. For gases the numbers in all these tables are the hypothetical
588 B Chapter fourteen chemical reactions
ideal-gas values. The pressure P° of 0.1 MPa is termed the standard-state pressure, and the
absolute entropy as given in these tables is designated s°. The temperature is designated in
kelvins with a subscript such as s° mo .
If the value of the absolute entropy is known at the standard-state pressure of 0. 1 MPa
and a given temperature, it is a straightforward procedure to calculate the entropy change
from this state (whether hypothetical ideal gas or real substance) to another desired state fol-
lowing the procedure described in Section 13.11 . If the substance is listed in Table A.8, then
5 w = 5S-51n^+(3 v -5Sp) (14.18)
In this expression, the first term on the right side is the value from Table A.9, the second
is the ideal-gas term to account for a change in pressure from P° to P, and the third is the
term that corrects for real-substance behavior, as given in the generalized entropy chart in
the Appendix. If the real-substance behavior is to be evaluated from an equation of state
or thermodynamic table of properties, the term for the change in pressure should be made
to a low pressure P* t at which ideal-gas behavior is a reasonable assumption, but it is also
listed in the tables. Then
If the substance is not one of those listed in Table A.9, and the absolute entropy is known
only at one temperature T Q , as given in Table A. 10 for example, then it will be necessary
to calculate S£ from
( i4 - 2 °>
and then proceed with the calculation of Eq. 14.17 or 14.19.
If Eq. 14.18 is being used to calculate the absolute entropy of a substance in a re-
gion in which the ideal-gas model is a valid representation of the behavior of that sub-
stance, then the last term on the right-side of Eq. 14.18 simply drops out of the
calculation.
For calculation of the absolute entropy of a mixture of ideal gases at T, P, the mix-
ture entropy is given in terms of the component partial entropies as
where
Sf=^ T -R\n^-R\n yi = ^--R ln*£ (14.22)
For a real-gas mixture, a correction can be added to the ideal-gas entropy calculated from
Eqs. 14:21 and 14.22 by using a pseudocritical method such as was discussed in Section
13.11. The corrected expression is
in which the second term on the right side is the correction term from the generalized en-
tropy chart.
Second -Law Analysis of reacting systems M 589
14.8 Second-law Analysis
of reacting Systems •
The concepts of reversible work, irreversibility, and availability (exergy) were introduced
in Chapter 10. These concepts included both the first and second laws of thermodynamics.
We proceed now to develop this matter further, and we will be particularly concerned
with determining the maximum work (availability) that can be done through a combustion
process and with examining the irreversibilities associated with such processes.
The reversible work for a steady-state process in which there is no heat transfer with
reservoirs other than the surroundings, and also in the absence of changes in kinetic and
potential energy is, from Eq. 10.9 on a total mass basis,
W«* = 2 mjh, " m - 2 mlK - T$s e )
Applying this equation to a steady-state process that involves a chemical reaction,
and introducing the symbols from this chapter, we have
W™ = 2 >#? + AA - JoS), - 2 nM + Ah ~ T s) e (14.24)
x P
Similarly, the irreversibility for such a process can be written as
/= JF rev - W= y 2n e T s e - - Q cv (14.25)
P R
The availability, iff, for a steady-flow process, in the absence of kinetic and potential
energy changes, is given by Eq. 10.19 as
ifi = (h- T s) - (h ~ T s )
We further note that if a steady-state chemical reaction takes place in such a manner
that both the reactants and products are in temperature equilibrium with the surroundings,
the Gibbs function (g = h — Ts), defined in Eq. 13.14, becomes a significant variable. For
such a process, in the absence of changes in kinetic and potential energy, the reversible
work is given by the relation
^ v = 2 ttiii ~ 2« e & = -AG (14.26)
J! P
in which
AC? = AH - T&S (14.27)
We should keep in mind that Eq. 14.26 is a special case and that the reversible work is
given by Eq. 14.24 if the reactants and products are not in temperature equilibrium with
the surroundings.
Let us now consider the question of the maximum work that can be done during a
chemical reaction. For example, consider 1 kmol of hydrocarbon fuel and the necessary
air for complete combustion, each at 0.1-MPa pressure and 25°C, the pressure and tem-
perature of the surroundings. What is the maximum work that can be done as this fuel re-
acts with the air? From the considerations covered in Chapter 10, we conclude that the
maximum work would be done if this chemical reaction took place reversibly and the
590 H chapter Fourteen chemical reactions
products were finally in pressure and temperature equilibrium with the surroundings. We
conclude that this reversible work could be calculated from the relation in Eq. 14.26,
R P
However, since the final state is in equilibrium with the surroundings, we could
consider this amount of work to be the availability of the fuel and air.
EXAMPLE 14.13 Ethene (g) at 25°C and 0.1-MPa pressure is burned with 400% theoretical air at 25°C
and 0.1-MPa pressure. Assume that this reaction takes place reversibly at 25°C and that
the products leave at 25°C and 0.1-MPa pressure. To simplify this problem further, as-
sume that the oxygen and nitrogen are separated before the reaction takes place (each at
0.1 MPa, 25°C), that the constituents in the products are separated, and that each is at
25°C and 0.1 MPa. Thus, the reaction takes place as shown in Fig. 14.4. For purposes of
comparison between this and the two subsequent examples, we consider all the water in
the products to be a gas (a hypothetical situation in this example and Example 14.15).
Determine the reversible work for this process (that is, the work that would be
done if this chemical action took place reversibly and isothermally).

The reversible work for this process is equal to the decrease in Gibbs function during
this reaction, Eq. 14.26. Since each component is at the standard-state pressure P° , we
write Eqs. 14.26 and 14.27 as

Therefore, we might say that when 1 kg of ethene is at 25°C, and the standard-
state pressure, 0.1 MPa } it has an availability of 46 85 1 kJ.
Thus, it would seem logical to rate the efficiency of a device designed to do work by
utilizing a combustion process, such as an internal-combustion engine or a steam power
plant, as the ratio of the actual work to the reversible work, or in Example 14.13, the de-
crease in Gibbs function for the chemical reaction, instead of comparing the actual work
to the heating value, as is commonly done. This is, in fact, the basic principle of the
second-law efficiency, which was introduced in connection with availability analysis in
Chapter 10. As noted from Example 14.13, the difference between the decrease in Gibbs
function and the heating value is small, which is typical for hydrocarbon fuels. The differ-
ence in the two types of efficiencies will, therefore, not usually be large. We must always
be careful, however, when discussing efficiencies, to note the definition of the efficiency
under consideration.
It is of particular interest to. study the irreversibility that takes place during a com-
bustion process. The following examples illustrate this matter. We consider the same hy-
drocarbon fuel that was used in Example 14.13 — ethene (g) at 25°C and 0.1 MPa. We
determined its availability and found it to be 46 851 kj/kg. Now let us burn this fuel with
400% theoretical air in a steady-state adiabatic process. We can determine the irreversibil-
ity of this process in two ways. The first way is to calculate the increase in entropy for the
process. Since the process is adiabatic, the increase in entropy is due entirely to the irre-
versibilities for the process, and we can find the irreversibility from Eq. 14.25. We can
also calculate the availabilities of the products of combustion at the adiabatic flame tem-
perature, and note that they are less than the availability of the fuel and air before the
combustion process. The difference is the irreversibility that occurs during the combus-
tion process.

adiabatic flame temperature. This combustion process is shown schematically in Fig.

Since this is an adiabatic process, the increase in entropy indicates the irre-

In other words, if every process after the adiabatic combustion process is reversible, the
maximum amount of work that could be done is 23 517 kJ/kg fuel. This compares to a
value of 46 851 kJ/kg for the reversible isothermal reaction. This means that if we had
an engine with the indicated adiabatic combustion process, and if all other processes
were completely reversible, the efficiency would be about 50%.
What is the effect of having the combustion process of Example 14.14 take place
with pure oxygen instead of air? In this case, the first law is the same, except with no

nitrogen term in the reactants or products. As a result, the adiabatic flame temperature
will be much higher, without having to heat up the 45.1 kmol of nitrogen. By trial and
error, this temperature is found to be 2800 K. The entropy of the reactants is now
2681.094 kJ/kmol fuel K, and that of the products at 2800 K is found to be 3760.695

mass basis, 1 1474 kJ/kg fuel, such that the availability of the products is 35 377 kJ/kg
fuel, significantly higher than for combustion with air in Example 14.14. This is be-
cause the products in this case are at a much higher temperature.
In the two prior examples we assumed, for purposes of simplifying the calcula-
tion, that the constituents in the reactants and products were separated, and each was at
0.1-MPa pressure. This of course is not a realistic problem. In the following example,
Example 14.13 is repeated with the assumption that the reactants and products each
consist of a mixture at 0.1-MPa pressure.
Example 14.15
Consider the same combustion process as in Example 14.13, but assume that the re-
actants consist of a mixture at 0.1-MPa pressure and 25°C and that the products also
consist of a mixture at 0.1 MPa and 25°C. Thus, the combustion process is as shown
in Fig. 14.6.
Determine the work that would be done if this combustion process took place re-
versibly and in pressure and temperature equilibrium with the surroundings.

In this case we must find the entropy of each substance as it exists in the mixture—
that is, at its partial pressure and the given temperature of 25°C. Because the absolute en-
tropies given in Tables A.9 and A.10 are at 0.1-MPa pressure and 25°Q the entropy of
each constituent in the mixture can be found, using Eq. 14.20 from the relation

14.9 Fuel Cells
The previous examples raise the question of the possibility of a reversible chemical reac-
tion. Some reactions can be made to approach reversibility by having them take place m
an electrolytic ceil, as described in Chapter 1. When a potential exactly equal to the elec-
tromotive force of the ceil is applied, no reaction takes place. When the applied potential
is increased slightly, the reaction proceeds in one direction, and if the applied potential is
decreased slightly, the reaction proceeds in the opposite direction. The work done is the
electrical energy supplied or delivered.
Consider a reversible reaction occurring at constant temperature equal to that of its
environment. The work output of the fuel cell ts
where AG is the change in Gibbs function for the overall chemical reaction. We also real-
ize that the work is given in terms of the charged electrons flowing through an electrical

putations can be done for a range of temperatures, leading to lower EMF as the tempera-
ture increases. This behavior is shown in Fig. 14.7.
A variety of fuel cells are being investigated for use in stationary as well as mobile
power plants. The low-temperature fuel cells use hydrogen as the fuel, whereas the higher
temperature cells can use methane and carbon monoxide that are then internally reformed
into hydrogen and carbon dioxide. The most important fuel cells are listed in Table 14.4
with their main characteristics.
The low-temperature fuel cells are very sensitive to being poisoned by CO gas so
that they require an external reformer and purifier to deliver hydrogen gas. The higher
temperature fuel cells can reform natural gas, mainly methane, but also ethane and
propane as shown in Table 14.2, into hydrogen gas and carbon monoxide inside the cell.
The latest research is being done with gasified coal as a fuel and operating the cell at
higher pressures like 15 atmospheres. As the fuel cell has exhaust gas with a small
amount of fuel in it, additional combustion can occur and then combine the fuel cell with
a gas turbine or steam power plant to utilize the exhaust gas energy. These combined
cycle power plants strive to have an efficiency of up to 60%.

Evaluation of Actual Combustion Processes H 599
14.10 Evaluation of Actual
Combustion Processes
A number of different parameters can be defined for evaluating the performance of an actual
combustion process, depending on the nature of the process and the system considered. In
the combustion chamber of a gas-turbine, for example, the objective is to raise the tempera-
ture of the products to a given temperature (usually the maximum temperature the metals in
the turbine can withstand). If we had a combustion process that achieved complete combus-
tion and that was adiabatic, the temperature of the products would be the adiabatic flame
temperature. Let us designate the fuel-air ratio needed to reach a given temperature under
these conditions as the ideal fuel-air ratio. In the actual combustion chamber, the combus-
tion will be incomplete to some extent, and there will be some heat transfer to the surround-
ings. Therefore, more fuel will be required to reach the given temperature, and this we
designate as the actual fuel-air ratio. The combustion efficiency, t) cosrib is defined here as
FA. ideal
T?comb = ~pl (14.29)
-^-"actual
On the other hand, in the furnace of a steam generator (boiler), the purpose is to
transfer the maximum possible amount of heat to the steam (water). In practice, the effi-
ciency of a steam generator is defined as the ratio of the heat transferred to the steam to
the higher heating value of the fuel. For a coal this is the heating value as measured in a
bomb calorimeter, which is the constant-volume heating value, and it corresponds to the
internal energy of combustion. We observe a minor inconsistency, since the boiler in-
volves a flow process, and the change in enthalpy is the significant factor. In most cases,
however, the error thus introduced is less than the experimental error involved in measur-
ing the heating value, and the efficiency of a steam generator is defined by the relation
_ heat transferred to steam/kg fuel
1Wn se ™ " higher heating value of the fuel C14 ' 30}
In an internal-combustion engine the purpose is to do work. The logical way to
evaluate the performance of an internal-combustion engine would be to compare the ac-
tual work done to the maximum work that would be done by a reversible change of state
from the reactants to the products. This, as we noted previously, is called the second-law
efficiency.
In practice, however, the efficiency of an internal-combustion engine is defined as the
ratio of the actual work to the negative of the enthalpy of combustion of the fuel (that is, the
constant-pressure heating value). This ratio is usually called the thermal efficiency,
v = = w (14.31)
— hgp^ heating value
The overall efficiency of a gas-turbine or steam power plant is defined in the same
way. It should be pointed out that in an internal-combustion engine or fuel-burning steam
power plant, the fact that the combustion is itself irreversible is a significant factor in the
relatively low thermal efficiency of these devices.
One other factor should be pointed out regarding efficiency. We have noted that the
enthalpy of combustion of a hydrocarbon fuel varies considerably with the phase of the water
in the products, which leads to the concept of higher and lower heating values. Therefore,
when we consider the thermal efficiency of an engine, the heating value used to determine
600 M chapter Fourteen chemical reactions
this efficiency must be borne in mind. Two engines made by different manufacturers may
have identical performance, but if one manufacturer bases his or her efficiency on the higher

higher thermal efficiency. This claim is not significant, of course, as the performance is the
same; this would be revealed by consideration of how the efficiency was defined.
The whole matter of the efficiencies of devices that undergo combustion processes
is treated in detail in textbooks dealing with particular applications; our discussion is in-
tended only as an introduction to the subject. Two examples are given, however, to illus-
trate these remarks.

>UMMARY
An introduction to combustion of hydrocarbon fuels and chemical reactions in general is
given. A simple oxidation of a hydrocarbon fuel with pure oxygen or air burns the hydro-
gen to water and the carbon to carbon dioxide. We apply the continuity equation for each
kind of atom to balance the stoichiometric coefficients of the species in the reactants and
products. The reactant mixture composition is described by the air-fuel ratio on a mass or
mole basis or percent theoretical air or equivalence ratio, according to the practice of the
particular area of use. The product of a given fuel for a stoichiometric mixture and com-
plete combustion is unique, whereas actual combustion can lead to incomplete combus-
tion and more complex products described by measurements on a dry or wet basis. As
water is part of the products, they have a dew point, so it is possible to see water condens-
ing out from the products as they are cooled.
Because of the chemical changes from the reactants to the products, we need to
measure energy from an absolute reference. Chemically pure substances (not compounds
like CO) in their ground state (graphite for carbon, not diamond form) are assigned a
value of for the formation enthalpy at reference temperature and pressure (25°C, 100
kPa). Stable compounds have a negative formation enthalpy, and unstable compounds
have a positive formation enthalpy. The shift in the enthalpy from the reactants to the
products is the enthalpy of combustion, which is also the negative of the heating value
HV. When a combustion process takes place without any heat transfer, the resulting prod-
uct temperature is the adiabatic flame temperature. The enthalpy of combustion, the heat-
ing value (lower or higher), and the adiabatic flame temperature depend on the mixture
(fuel and A/F ratio) and the reactant' s supply temperature. When a single unique number
for these properties is used, it is understood to be for a stoichiometric mixture at the refer-
ence conditions.
Similarly to the enthalpy, an absolute value of entropy is needed for the application
of the second law. The absolute entropy is zero for a perfect crystal at K, which is the
third law of thermodynamics. The combustion process is an irreversible process, and
there is thus a loss of availability (exergy) associated with it. This irreversibility is in-
creased by mixtures different from stoichiometric and by dilution of the oxygen (i.e., ni-
trogen in air), which lowers the adiabatic flame temperature. From the concept of flow
exergy, we apply the second law to find the reversible work given by the change in Gibbs
function. A process that has less irreversibility than combustion at high temperature is the
chemical conversion in a fuel cell where we approach a chemical equilibrium process
(covered in detail in the following chapter). Here the energy release is directly converted

opment for future energy conversion -systems.

introduction to phase and
Chemical equilibrium
Up to this point, we have assumed that we are dealing either with systems that are in
equilibrium or with those in which the deviation from equilibrium is infinitesimal, as in a
quasi-equilibrium or reversible process. For irreversible processes we made no attempt to
describe the state of the system during the process but dealt only with the initial and final
states of the system, in the case of a control mass, or the inlet and exit states as well in the
case of a control volume. For any case, we either considered the system to be in equilib-
rium throughout or at least made the assumption of local equilibrium.
In this chapter we examine the criteria for equilibrium and from them derive certain re-
lations that will enable us, under certain conditions, to determine the properties of a system
when it is in equilibrium. The specific case we will consider is that involving chemical equi-
librium in a single phase (homogeneous equilibrium) as well as certain related topics.
15.1 REQUIREMENTS FOR EQUILIBRIUM
As a general requirement for equilibrium, we postulate that a system is in equilibrium
when there is no possibility that it can do any work when it is isolated from its surround-
ings. In applying this criterion, it is helpful to divide the system into two or more subsys-
tems, and consider the possibility of doing work by any conceivable interaction between
these two subsystems. For example, in Fig. 15.1 a system has been divided into two sys-
tems and an engine, of any conceivable variety, placed between these subsystems. A sys-
tem may be so defined as to include the immediate surroundings. In this case, we can let
the immediate surroundings be a subsystem and thus consider the general case of the
equilibrium between a system and its surroundings.
The first requirement for equilibrium is that the two.subsystems have the same tem-
perature, for otherwise we could operate a heat engine between the two systems and do
work. Thus, we conclude that one requirement for equilibrium is that a system must be at
a uniform temperature to be in equilibrium. It is also evident that there must be no unbal-
anced mechanical forces between the two systems, or else one could operate a turbine or
piston engine between the two systems and do work.
We would like to establish general criteria for equilibrium that would apply to all
simple compressible substances, including those that undergo chemical reactions. We
■-. will find that the Gibbs function is a particularly significant property in defining the crite-
ria for equilibrium.
Let us first consider a qualitative example to illustrate this point. Consider a natural
. gas well that is 1 km deep, and let us assume that the temperature of the gas is constant

throughout the gas wel!. Suppose we have analyzed the composition of the gas at the top
of the well, and we would like to know the composition of the gas at the bottom of the
well. Furthermore, let us assume that equilibrium conditions prevail in the well. If this is
true we would expect that an engine such as that shown in Fig. 15.2 (which operates on
the basis of the pressure and composition change with elevation and does not involve
combustion) would not be capable of doing any work.
If we consider a steady-state process for a control volume around this engine, the re-
versible work for the change of state from i to e is given by Eq. 10.9 on a total mass basis
W rev = in, (a, + ^ + gZ l - 7*,*) - ib, ^ e + ^ + gZ e - ToS t
Furthermore, since T t — T e — T = constant, this reduces to the form of the Gibbs
function g = A - Ts t Eq. 13,14, and the reversible work is
/ V? \ / V 2
However,
Then we can write
V? V 2
W m = 0, m t = m e and y = -y
Si + S Z i = Se + S Z e
and the requirement for equilibrium in the well between two levels that are a distance dZ
apart would be

Equilibrium point
In contrast to a deep gas well, most of the systems that we consider are of such size that
AZ is negligibly small, and therefore we consider the pressure to be uniform throughout.
This leads to the general statement of equilibrium that applies to simple compressible
substances that may undergo a change in chemical composition, namely, that at equilibrium
dG T>P = Q (15.1)
In the case of a chemical reaction, it is helpful to think of the equilibrium state as
the state in which the Gibbs function is a minimum. For example, consider a control mass
consisting initially of n A moles of substance^ and n B moles of substance B, which react in
accordance with the relation
Let the reaction take place at constant pressure and temperature. If we plot G for
this control mass as a function of n A , the number of moles of A present, we would have a
curve as shown in Fig. 15.3. At the minimum point on the curve, dG TP = 0, and this will
be the equilibrium composition for this system at the given temperature and pressure. The
subject of chemical equilibrium will be developed further in Section 15.4.
15.2 Equilibrium Between Two
Phases of a Pure Substance
As another example of this requirement for equilibrium, let us consider the equilibrium be-
tween two phases of a pure substance. Consider a control mass consisting of two phases of a
pure substance at equilibrium. We know that under these conditions the two phases are at the
same pressure and temperature. Consider the change of state associated with a transfer ofdn
moles from phase 1 to phase 2 while the temperature and pressure remain constant. That is,
dn x = ~dn 2
The Gibbs function of this control mass is given by
G=f{T,P ) n\n 2 )
where «' and n 7 designate the number of moles in each phase. Therefore,

By definition,
Therefore, at constant temperature and pressure,
Now at equilibrium (Eq. 15.1)
dG TP —
Therefore, at equilibrium, we have
That is, under equilibrium conditions, the Gibbs function of each phase of a pure sub-
stance is equal Let us check this by determining the Gibbs function of saturated liquid
(water) and saturated vapor (steam) at 300 kPa. From the steam tables:
For the liquid:
gf =ft f -Ts f = 561.47 - 406.7 X 1.6718 = -118.4 kJ/kg
For the vapor;
g g = h s ~ Ts g = 2725.3 - 406.7 X 6.9919 = —118.4 kJ/kg
Equation 15.2 can also be derived by applying the relation
Tds = dh-v dP
to the change of phase that takes place at constant pressure and temperature. For this
process this relation can be integrated as follows:
dh
f
7\s g - s f ) = {h g - h f )
The Clapeyron equation, which was derived in Section 13.1, can be derived by an
alternate method by considering the fact that the Gibbs functions of two phases in equilib-
rium are equal. In Chapter 13 we considered the relation (Eq. 13.15) for a simple com-
pressible substance:
dg = vdP~sdT
Consider a control mass that consists of a saturated liquid and a saturated vapor in
equilibrium, and let this system undergo a change of pressure dP. The corresponding
change in temperature, as determined from the vapor-pressure curve, is dT. Both phases
will undergo the change in Gibbs function, dg, but since the phases always have the same
value of the Gibbs function when they are in equilibrium, it follows that
dg f =dg g
Equilibrium between Two Phases of a Pure Substance 88 621
But, from Eq. 13.15,
dg=vdP- sdT
it follows that
dg f = v f dP~s f dT
dg z = v g dP~ s g dT
Since
it follows that

In summary, when different phases of a pure substance are in equilibrium, each
phase has the same value of the Gibbs function per unit mass. This fact is relevant to dif-
ferent solid phases of a pure substance and is important in metallurgical applications of
thermodynamics. Example 15.1 illustrates this principle.

Analysis and Solution
The basic principle in the solution is that graphite and diamond can exist in equilibrium
when they have the same value of the Gibbs function". At 0.1 MPa pressure the Gibbs
function of the diamond is greater than that of the graphite. However, the rate of increase
in Gibbs function with pressure is greater for the graphite than for the diamond, therefore,
at some pressure they can exist in equilibrium. Our problem is to find this pressure.
We have already considered the relation
dg=vdP~sdT
Since we are considering a process that takes place at constant temperature, this
reduces to
dg T =vdP T (a)

Now at any pressure P and the given temperature, the specific volume can be found
from the following relation, which utilizes isothermal compressibility factor.

The superscript will be used in this example to indicate the properties at a pres-

assume that j3 r is constant and that we are considering a very high pressure. With these
assumptions this equation can be integrated to give
v = v°-v a IS T P=v <i (\ -PjF)
We can now substitute this into Eq. (a) to give the relation
(P 2 - P 02 )
If we assume that P° <P, this reduces to
For the graphite, g° = and we can write

For the diamond, g° has a definite value and we have

Solving this for P we find
P = 1493 MPa
That is, at 1493 MPa, 25°C, graphite and diamond can exist in equilibrium, and the pos-
sibility exists for conversion from graphite to diamonds.
15.3 METASTABLE EQUILIBRIUM
Although the limited scope of this book precludes an extensive treatment of metastable
equilibrium, a brief introduction to the subject is presented in this section. Let us first con-
sider an example of metastable equilibrium.
Consider a slightly superheated vapor, such as steam, expanding in a convergent-
divergent nozzle, as shown in Fig. 1 5.4. Assuming the process is reversible and adiabatic,
the steam will follow path l-a on the T-s diagram, and at point a we would expect con-
densation to occur. However, if point a is reached in the divergent section of the nozzle, it
is observed that no condensation occurs until point b is reached, and at this point the con-
densation occurs very abruptly in what is referred to as a condensation shock. Between
points a and b the steam exists as a vapor, but the temperature is below the saturation tem-
perature for the given pressure. This is known as a metastable state. The possibility of a
metastable state exists with any phase transformation. The dotted lines on the equilibrium
diagram shown in Fig. 15.5 represent possible metastable states for solid-liquid-vapor
equilibrium.
The nature of a metastable state is often pictured schematically by the kind ofdia-
gram shown in Fig. 15.6. The ball is in a stable position (the "metastable state") for small

steam expanding in the nozzle is in a metastable state between a and b. This means that
droplets smaller than a certain critical size will reevaporate, and only when droplets larger
than this critical size have formed (this corresponds to moving the ball out of the depres-
sion) will the new equilibrium state appear.

15.4 Chemical equilibrium
We now turn our attention to chemical equilibrium and consider first a chemical reaction
involving only one phase. This is referred to as a homogeneous chemical reaction. It may
be helpful to visualize this as a gaseous phase, but the basic considerations apply to any
phase.
Consider a vessel, Fig. 15.7, that contains four compounds, A, B, C, and D, which
are in chemical equilibrium at a given pressure and temperature. For example, these might
consist of C0 2 , H 3 , CO, and H 2 in equilibrium. Let the number of moles of each compo-
nent be designated n A , n B , n g and n D . Furthermore, let the chemical reaction that takes
place between these four constituents be
VjA + v B B ^ v c C + VpD
(15.4)
where the v's are the stoichiometric coefficients. It should be emphasized that there is a
very definite relation between the v's (the stoichiometric coefficients), whereas the n's
(the number of moles present) for any constituent can be varied simply by varying the
amount of that component in the reaction vessel.
Let us now consider how the requirement for equilibrium, namely, that dG TF = at
equilibrium, applies to a homogeneous chemical reaction. Let us assume that the four
Chemical equilibrium H 625
components are in chemical equilibrium and then assume that from this equilibrium state,
while the temperature and pressure remain constant, the reaction proceeds an infinitesimal
amount toward the right as Eq. 15.4 is written. This results in a decrease in the moles of A
and B and an increase in the moles of C and D. Let us designate the degree of reaction by
e } and define the degree of reaction by the relations
dn A = —v A ds
dn B — —v B de
dn c — +v c ds
dn D =+v D d£ (15.5)
That is, the change in the number of moles of any component during a chemical re-
action is given by the product of the stoichiometric coefficients (the u's) and the degree of
reaction.
Let us evaluate the change in the Gibbs function associated with this chemical reac-
tion that proceeds to the right in the amount de. In doing so we use, as would be expected,
the Gibbs function of each component in the mixture— the partial molal Gibbs function
(or its equivalent, the chemical potential):
dG TP = G c dn c + G D dn D + G A dn A + G B dn B
Substituting Eq. 15,5, we have
dG ZP = (v c G c + v D G D - v A G A - v B G B ) de (15.6)
We now need to develop expressions for the partial molal Gibbs functions in
terms of properties that we are able to calculate. From the definition of Gibbs function
Eq. 13.14,
G = H — TS
For a mixture of two components A and B, we differentiate this equation with re-
spect to n A at constant T } P, and n Bi which results in
\ dn A}T?,n s \^a)tA^ \ dn A/T?,n a
All three of these quantities satisfy the definition of partial molal properties according to
Eq. 13.68, such that
G A =H A ~ TS A (15.7)
For an ideal-gas mixture, enthalpy is not a function of pressure, and
H A = h ATP = h ATI * (15.8)
Entropy is, however, a function of pressure, so that the partial entropy of A can be ex-
pressed by Eq. 14.22 in terms of the standard-state value,
$a ~ s ATP J = Y ll P

Now, substituting Eqs. 15,8 and 15.9 into Eq. 15.7,
(15.10)
Equation 15.10 is an expression for the partial Gibbs function of a component in a mixture
in terms of a specific reference value, the pure-substance standard-state Gibbs function at
the same temperature, and a function of the temperature, pressure, and composition of the
mixture. This expression can be applied to each of the components in Eq. 15.6, resulting in

Let us define AG as follows:
AG = v^ c + Vd & - - (15.12)
That is, AG is the change in the Gibbs function that would occur if the chemical re-
action given by Eq. 15.4 (which involves the stoichiometric amounts of each component)
proceeded completely from left to right, with the reactants^ and B initially separated and
at temperature T and the standard-state pressure and the products C and D finally sepa-
rated and at temperature T and the standard-state pressure. Note also that AG 3 for a given
reaction is a function of only the temperature. This will be most important to bear in mind
as we proceed with our developments of homogeneous chemical equilibrium. Let us now
digress from our development to consider an example involving the calculation of AG .
EXAMPLE 15.2 Determine the value of AG for the reaction 2H 2 ^ 2H 2 + 2 at 25°C and at 2000 K,
with the water in the gaseous phase.
Solution
At any given temperature, the standard-state Gibbs function change of Eq. 15.12 can be
calculated from the relation
AG° = Afl°- rA5°
At25°C,

= 2(130.678) + 1(205.148) - 2(188.834) - 88.836 kJ/K
Therefore, at 25°C,

Therefore,
AG = 503 136 -2000 X 116.048 = 271 040 kJ
Returning now to our development, substituting Eq. 15.12 into Eq. 15.11 and rear-
ranging we can write

which we note must be a function of temperature only for a given reaction, since AG is
given by Eq. 15. 12 in terms of the properties of the pure substances at a given temperature
and the standard-state pressure.
Combining Eqs. 15.14 and 15.15, we have
(15,16)
which is the chemical equilibrium equation corresponding to the reaction equation, Eq. 15.4.
From the equilibrium constant definition in Eqs. 15.15 and 15.16 we can draw a few
conclusions. If the shift in the Gibbs function is large and positive, In K is large and nega-
tive leading to a very small value of K. At a given P in Eq. 15.16 this leads to relatively
small values of the RHS (component C andD) concentrations relative to the LHS compo-
nent concentrations; the reaction is shifted to the left. The opposite is the case of a shift in
the Gibbs function that is large and negative, giving a large value of K and the reaction is
shifted to the right as shown in Fig. 15.8. If the shift in Gibbs function is zero, then In JSTis
zero, and K is exactly equal to 1, the reaction is in the middle with all concentrations of
the same order of magnitude, unless the stoichiometric coefficients are extreme.

a higher temperature, but same shift in Gibbs function, the absolute value of In K is
smaller, which means K is closer to 1 and the reaction is more centered. For low tempera-
tures the reaction is shifted toward the side with the smallest Gibbs function G . The
pressure has an influence only if the power in Eq. 15.16 is different from zero. That is so
when the number of moles on the RHS (v c + v D ) is different from the number of moles
on the LHS (y A + v B ). Assuming we have more moles on the RHS, then we see that the
power is positive. So if the pressure is larger than the reference pressure, the whole pres-
sure factor is larger than 1, which reduces the RHS concentrations as K is fixed for a given
temperature. You can argue all the other combinations, and the result is that a higher pres-
sure pushes the reaction toward the side with fewer moles, and a lower pressure pushes
the reaction toward the side with more moles. The reaction tries to counteract the exter-
nally imposed pressure variation.
EXAMPLE 15.3 Determine the equilibrium constant K, expressed as in K, for the reaction 2H 2 ^
21 1 2 + 2 at 25°C and at 2000 K.

tures. Therefore, at 25°C,

Table A.1 1 gives the values of the equilibrium constant for a number of reactions.
Note again that for each reaction the value of the equilibrium constant is determined from
the properties of each of the pure constituents at the standard-state pressure and is a func-
tion of temperature only.
For other reaction equations, the chemical equilibrium constant can be calculated as
in Example 15.3. Sometimes you can write a reaction scheme as a linear combination of

we can write a reaction HI as a linear combination of reaction I and reaction II, which
means

Analysis and Solution
It is convenient to view the overall process as though it occurs in two separate steps, a
combustion process followed by a heating and dissociation of the combustion product
carbon dioxide, as indicated in Fig. 15.9. This two-step process is represented as
Combustion: C + 2 — » C0 2
Dissociation reaction: 2C0 2 ^ 2CO + 2
That is, the energy released by the combustion of C and 2 heats the C0 2 formed to high
temperature, which causes dissociation of part of the C0 2 to CO and 2 . Thus, the over-
all reaction can be written
C + 2 -*■ aC0 2 + bCO + d0 2
where the unknown coefficients a, b, and d must be found by solution of the equilibrium -
equation associated with the dissociation reaction. Once this is accomplished, we can
write the first law for a control volume around the combustion chamber to calculate the
heat transfer.

From the combustion equation we find that the initial composition for the dissoci-

At equilibrium: (1 — 2z) 2z z
Therefore, the overall reaction is

From Table A.ll we find that the value of the equilibrium constant at 3000 K for the

To obtain the physically meaningful root of this mathematical relation, we note
that the number of moles of each component must be greater than zero. Thus, the root of
interest to us must lie in the range
0<z<0.5
Solving the equilibrium equation by trial and error, we find
z = 0.2189

The equilibrium constant for the reaction 2C0 2 ^ 2CO + 2 at 3000 K. was found in

We note that in order for the number of kilomoles of each component to be greater than

15.5 Simultaneous Reactions
In developing the equilibrium equation and equilibrium constant expressions of Sec-
tion 15.4, it was assumed that there was only a single chemical reaction equation re-
lating the substances present in the system. To demonstrate the more general situation
in which there is more than one chemical reaction, we will now analyze a case involv-
ing two simultaneous reactions by a procedure analogous to that followed in Section
15.4. These results are then readily extended to systems involving several simultaneous
reactions.
Consider a mixture of substances A,B,C, D, L, M t and TV as indicated in Fig. 15.10.
These substances are assumed to exist at a condition of chemical equilibrium at tempera-
ture T and pressure P, and are related by the two independent reactions

Sketch demonstrating
simultaneous reactions.
We have considered the situation where one of the components (substance A) is in-
volved in each of the reactions in order to demonstrate the effect of this condition on the
resulting equations. As in the previous section, the changes in amounts of the components
are related by the various stoichiometric coefficients (which are not the same as the num-
ber of moles of each substance present in the vessel). We also realize that the coefficients
v Al and v A1 are not necessarily the same. That is, substance A does not in general take part
in each of the reactions to the same extent.
Development of the requirement for equilibrium is completely analogous to that of
Section 15.4, We consider that each reaction proceeds an infinitesimal amount toward the
right side. This results in a decrease in the number of moles of A, B, and L, and an increase
in the moles of C, £>, M, and N. Letting the degrees of reaction be e x and s 2 for reactions
Simultaneous Reactions H 635
I and 2, respectively, the changes in the number of moles are, for infinitesimal shifts from
the equilibrium composition,
dn A = ~v Al ds l ~ v Ai de 2
dn B — — v B ds x
dn L - ~v L ds 2
dn c = +v c ds\
dn D = +v D dsi
dn M - +v M de 2
dn N = +v N ds 2 (15.21)
The change in Gibbs function for the mixture in the vessel at constant temperature
and pressure is
dG TiP = G A dn A + G B dn B + G c dn c -f G D dn D + G L dn L + G M dn M + G M dn N
Substituting the expressions of Eq. 15.21 and collecting terms,
dG TtP ~ (v c G c + v D G D - v A G A - v B G B ) ds l

Equation 15.23 expresses the change in Gibbs function of the system at constant T,
P, for infinitesimal degrees of reaction of both reactions 1 and 2, Eqs. 15.19 and 15.20.
The requirement for equilibrium is that dG TP = 0. Therefore, since reactions 1 and 2 are
independent, de x and de 2 can be independently varied. It follows that at equilibrium each
of the bracketed terms of Eq. 15.23 must be zero. Defining equilibrium constants for the
two reactions by

These expressions for the equilibrium composition of the mixture must be solved simulta-
neously. The following example demonstrates and clarifies this procedure.
EXAMPLE 15.7 One kilomole of water vapor is heated to 3000 K, 0. 1 MPa pressure. Determine the equi-
librium composition, assuming that H 2 0, H 2 , 2> and OH are present.
Control volume: Heat exchanger.
Exit slate: P,rknown.
Model: Ideal-gas mixture at equilibrium.
Analysis and Solution
There are two independent reactions relating the four components of the mixture at equi-
librium. These can be written as
Let 2a be the number of kilomoles of water dissociating according to reaction 1 during
the heating, and let 2b be the number of kilomoles of water dissociating according to re-
action 2. Since the initial composition is 1 kmol water, the changes according to the two
reactions are
(1) 2H 2 0^2H 2 + 2
(2) 2H 2 O^H 2 + 2 0H
(l)2H 2 0^2H 2 + 2
Change: ~2a + 2a + a
(2)2H 2 0^ H 2 +2 OH
Change: ~2b + b + 2b
Simultaneous Reactions B 637
Therefore, the number of kilomoles of each component at equilibrium is its initial num-
ber plus the change, so that at equilibrium
n Hi Q — 1 — 2a — lb
n Uj = 2a + b
"p, = a
n = 1 + a + b
The overall chemical reaction that occurs during the heating process can be written
H 2 -» (1 - 2a - 26)H 2 + (2a + b)H 2 + a0 2 + 2bOK
The right-hand side of this expression is the equilibrium composition of the system.
Since the number of kilomoles of each substance must necessarily be greater than zero,
we find that the possible values of a and b are restricted to
a £
b>0
(a + £)<0.5
The two equilibrium equations are, assuming that the mixture behaves as an ideal gas,

Since the mole fraction of each component is the ratio of the number of kilomoles of the
component to the total number of kilomoles of the mixture, these equations can be writ-
ten in the form

giving two equations in the two unknowns a and b, since P = 0.1 MPa and the values of
K u K 2 are known. From Table A. 1 1 at 3000 K, we find
Ki ~ 0.002 062 K 2 ~ 0.002 893
Therefore, the equations can be solved simultaneously for a and b. The values satisfying
the equations are
a 0.0534 b - 0.0551
Substituting these values into the expressions for the number of kilomoles of each com-
ponent and of the mixture, we find the equilibrium mole fractions to be
Mo " :: 0.7063

y 0i - 0.0482
y 0K = 0.0994
The methods used in this section can readily be extended to equilibrium systems
having more than two independent reactions. In each case, the number of simultaneous
equilibrium equations is equal to the number of independent reactions. The solution of a
large set of nonlinear simultaneous equations naturally becomes quite difficult, however,
and is not easily accomplished by hand calculations. These problems are normally solved
using iterative procedures on a computer.
15.6 Ionization
In the final section of this chapter, we consider the equilibrium of systems that are made
up of ionized gases, or plasmas, a field that has been studied and applied increasingly in
recent years. In previous sections, we discussed chemical equilibrium, with a particular
emphasis on molecular dissociation, as for example the reaction
N 2 ^2N
which occurs to an appreciable extent for most molecules only at high temperature, of the
order of magnitude 3000 to 10 000 K. At still higher temperatures, such as those found in
electric arcs, the gas becomes ionized. That is, some of the atoms lose an electron, accord-
ing to the reaction
N ^ N + + e~
where N + denotes a singly ionized nitrogen atom, one that has lost one electron and conse-
quently has a positive charge, and e~ represents the free electron. As the temperature rises
still higher, many of the ionized atoms lose another electron, according to the reaction
and thus becomes doubly ionized. As the temperature continues to rise, the process continues
until a temperature is reached at which all the electrons have been stripped from the nucleus.
Ionization M 639
Ionization generally is appreciable only at high temperature. However, dissociation
and ionization both tend to occur to greater extents at low pressure, and consequently dis-
sociation and ionization may be appreciable in such environments as the upper atmo-
sphere, even at moderate temperature. Other effects such as radiation will also cause
ionization, but these effects are not considered here.
The problems of analyzing the composition in a plasma become much more diffi-
cult than for an ordinary chemical reaction, for in an electric field the free electrons in the
mixture do not exchange energy with the positive ions and neutral atoms at the same rate
that they do with the field. Consequently, in a plasma in an electric field, the electron gas
is not at exactly the same temperature as the heavy particles. However, for moderate
fields, assuming a condition of thermal equilibrium in the plasma is a reasonable approxi-
mation, at least for preliminary calculations. Under this condition, we can treat the ioniza-
tion equilibrium in exactly the same manner as an ordinary chemical equilibrium analysis.
At these extremely high temperatures, we may assume that the plasma behaves as
an ideal-gas mixture of neutral atoms, positive ions, and electron gas. Thus, for the ioniza-
tion of some atomic species A,
A^±A + + e~ (1530)
we may write the ionization equilibrium equation in the form
The ionization-equilibrium constant K is defined in the ordinary manner
In ^=-4^ (15.32)
RT
and is a function of temperature only. The standard-state Gibbs function change for reac-
tion 15.30 is found from
AG» = ( 15 - 33 >
The standard-state Gibbs function for each component at the given plasma tempera-
ture can be calculated using the procedures of statistical thermodynamics, so that
ionization-equilibrium constants can be tabulated as functions of temperature.
Solution of the ionization-equilibrium equation, Eq. 15.31, is then accomplished in
the same manner as for an ordinary chemical-reaction equilibrium.

Simultaneous reactions, such as simultaneous molecular dissociation and ionization
reactions or multiple ionization reactions, can be analyzed in the same manner as the ordi-
nary simultaneous chemical reactions of Section 15.5. In doing so, we again make the as-
sumption of thermal equilibrium in the plasma, which, as mentioned before, is, in many
cases, a reasonable approximation. Figure 15.11 shows the equilibrium composition of air
at high temperature and low density, and indicates the overlapping regions of the various
dissociation and ionization processes.
NUMMARY
A short introduction is given to equilibrium in general with application to phase equilib-
rium and chemical equilibrium. From previous analysis with the second law we have
found the reversible shaft work as the change in Gibbs function. This is extended to give
the equilibrium state as the one with minimum Gibbs function at a given T, P. This also
applies to two phases in equilibrium, so each phase has the same Gibbs function.
Chemical equilibrium is formulated for a single-equilibrium reaction assuming
the components are all ideal gases. This leads to an equilibrium equation tying together
the mole fractions of the components, the pressure, and the reaction constant. The reac-
tion constant is related to the shift in Gibbs function from the reactants (LHS) to the
products (RHS) at a temperature T. As temperature or pressure changes, the equilibrium
642 m chapter Fifteen introduction to phase and chemical equilibrium
composition will shift according to its sensitivity to T and P. For very large equilibrium
constants, the reaction is shifted toward the RHS, and for very small ones it is shifted
toward the LHS.
In most real systems of interest, there are multiple reactions coming to equilib-
rium simultaneously with a fairly large number of species involved. Often species are
present in the mixture without participation in the reactions causing a dilution, so all
mole fractions are lower than they otherwise would be. As a iast example of a reaction,
we show an ionization process in which one or more electrons can be separated from
an atom.
You should have learned a number of skills and acquired abilities from studying
this chapter that will allow you to:

tion, surface tension, and electrical potentials, as well as the concept of metastable
states.

equation.

flow process. The flame temperature is 4600 R,
and the combustion products are assumed to
consist of N 2 , 2 , C0 2 , H 2 0, CO, and NO. De-
termine the value of x.
15.104E Methane is burned with theoretical oxygen in a
steady-state process, and the products exit the
combustion chamber at 5300 F, 100 lbf/in. 2 .
Calculate the equilibrium composition at this
state, assuming that only C0 2 , CO, H 2 0, H 2 ,
2 , and OH are present.
15.1 05E In a test of a gas-turbine combustor, saturated-
liquid methane at 210 R is to be burned with
excess air to hold the adiabatic flame tempera-
ture to 2880 R. It is assumed that the products
consist of a mixture of C0 2 , H 2 0, N 2> 2 , and
NO in chemical equilibrium. Determine the
percent excess air used in the combustion, and
the percentage of NO in the products.

650 H CHAPTER FIFTEEN INTRODUCTION TO PHASE AND CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM
15.110 Examine the chemical equilibrium that takes place
in an engine where CO and various nitrogen oxy-
gen compounds summarized as NO x may be
formed. Study the processes for a range of air-fuel
ratios and temperatures for typical fuels. Are there
important reactions not listed in the book?
15.111 A number of products may be produced from
the conversion of organic waste that can be used
as fuel (see Problem 15.60). Study the subject
and make a list of the major products that are
formed and the conditions at which they are
formed in desirable concentrations.
15.112 The hydrides as explained in Problem 15.66 can
store large amounts of hydrogen. The penalty
for the storage is that energy must be supplied
when the hydrogen is released. Investigate the
literature for quantitative information about the
quantities and energy involved in such a hydro-
gen storage.
15.113 The hydrides explained in Problem 15.66 can be
used in a chemical heat pump. The energy in-
volved in the chemical reaction can be added
and removed at different temperatures. For some
hydrides these temperatures are low enough to
make them feasible for heat pumps for heat up-
grade, refrigerators, and air conditioners. Inves-
tigate the literature for such applications and
give some typical values for these systems,
15.114 Power plants and engines have high peak tem-
peratures in the combustion products where NO
is produced. The equilibrium NO level at the
high temperature is frozen at that level during
the rapid drop in temperature with the expan-
sion. The final exhaust therefore contains NO at
a level much higher than the equilibrium value
at the exhaust temperature. Study the NO level
at equilibrium when natural gas, CH 4 , is burned
adiabatically with air (at 7* ) in various ratios.
15.115 Excess air or steam addition is often used to
lower the peak temperature in combustion to
limit formation of pollutants like NO. Study the
steam addition to the combustion of natural gas
as in the Cheng cycle (see Problem 12.176), as-
suming the steam is added before the combus-
tion. How does this affect the peak temperature
and the NO concentration?

Appendix C
ideal-Gas Specific heat
Three types of energy storage or possession were identified in Section 2.6, of which two,
translation and intramolecular energy, are associated with the individual molecules.
These comprise the ideal-gas model, with the third type, the system intermolecular poten-
tial energy, then accounting for the behavior of real (nontdeal-gas) substances. This ap-
pendix deals with the ideal-gas contributions. Since these contribute to the energy, and
therefore also the enthalpy, they also contribute to the specific heat of each gas. The dif-
ferent possibilities can be grouped according to the intramolecular energy contributions
as follows:
Monatomic Gases (inert gases Ah, He, ne,
XE, Kr, ALSO N, O, H 5 CL, F, . . .)
^ ~ ^translation ^~ ^electronic ~ ?h
dh_Mh_,dh r _ r , r _5 B , ,™
dT~ dT dT' ~ 1 ~ 2 ^ '
where the electronic contribution, f e (T), is usually small, except at very high T (common
exceptions are O, CI, F).
DIATOMIC AN© LINEAR POLYATOMIC GASES
(N 2 , O a , CO, OH, . . . , C0 2 , N 2 0, . . . )
In addition to translational and electronic contributions to specific heat, these also have
molecular rotation (about the center of mass of the molecule) and also (3a — 5) indepen-
dent modes of molecular vibration of the a atoms in the molecule relative to one another,
such that
Cm = C m + C nr +C POo + C POg = ^R + R +f v (T) +f e (T)
where the vibrational contribution is
/^^lW-l) J ], Xl = %
723
724 Appendix c ideal-gas specific heat
and the electronic contribution, f£T), is usually small, except at very high T (common ex-
ceptions are 2> NO, OH).
EXAMPLE C.l N 2 , 3a - 5 = 1 vibrational mode, with 6 S = 3392 K.
At T = 300 K, C F0 = 0.742 + 0.2968 + 0.0005 + ~0 ='1.0393 kJ/kg K.
At T = 1000 K, C n = 0.742 4- 0.2968 + 0.123 + «0 = 1-1618 kJ/kg K.
(an increase of 1 1.8% from 300 K).
EXAMPLE C.2 C0 2> 3a - 5 = 4 vibrational modes, with 6, = 960 K, 960 K, 1993 K, 3380 K
At T = 300 K f Cpo = 0.4723 + 0. 1 889 + 0. 1 826 + ~0 = 0.8438 kJ/kg K.
AtJ= 1000 K,C PQ = 0.4723 + 0.1889 + 0.5659 + «0 = 1,2271 kJ/kgK.
(an increase of 45.4% from 300 K).
NONLINEAR POLYATOMIC MOLECULES
(H 2 0, NH 3 , CH 4 , C 2 H 6 , ...)
Contributions to specific heat are similar to those for linear molecules, except that the ro-
tational contribution is larger and there are (3a - 6) independent vibrational modes, such
that
Cpo = C m + C^r + + Cn e = |tf + \R +f v (T) +f£T)
where the vibrational contribution is
MT) = R%\&'W ~ I) 2 ]. *f = %
i=i *■
and/ e (I) is usually small, except at very high temperatures.
EXAMPLE C.3 CH 4 , 3a - 6 = 9 vibrational modes, with 8 t = 4196 K, 2207 K (two modes), 1879 K
(three), 4343 K (three)
At T = 300 K, Cpo = 1.2958 + 0.7774 + 0.1527 + ~0 = 2.2259 kJ/kg K.
At T = 1000 K, C w = 1.2958 + 0.7774 + 2.4022 + =0 = 4.4754 kJ/kg K.
(an increase of 101.1% from 300 K).
Appendix D
Equations of State
Some of the most used pressure-explicit equations of state can be shown in a form with
two parameters. This form is known as a cubic equation of state and contains as a special
case the ideal-gas law:
p _ RT ... a
v - b v 2 + cbv + db %
where (a, b) are parameters and {c, d) define the model as shown in the following table
with the acentric factor (w) and
b = boRTJP, and a = a{fi 2 T%P c
The acentric factor is defined by the saturation pressure at a reduced temperature
T r = 0.7
In Pf at T r = 0.7
